    Solid location, that’s about it. Trash. The staff was unmotivated, lazy and showed a lot of attitude whenever we had a question or request. Clear lack of management. The manager must’ve ran off when he had a chance. The breakfast, abysmal. Tucked in a small corner you’ll find some of the worst food America has to offer. Don’t eat the sausage patties. Seriously don’t. Matter of fact don’t eat anything and skip the coffee too. Plenty of great options around the hotel. The room was fine, however, some of our towels had brown stains (check them upon checkin). The wifi didn’t work. If you absolutely must stay there just leave your bags and enjoy the city.

    3/5

    Cute updated urban hotel, great location for walking to many restaurants. Charming front courtyard & lobby area too. Breakfast is more or less grab-n-go, but there are eggs, waffles etc to bring to room or eat in lobby. Gluten free bread was appreciated. Staff could be friendlier in person but very responsive to texts. My main complaint was the noise level in both my rooms. 1st room had a nice street view. But it was adjacent to the housekeeping closet. This 4th floor room's vintage door wasn't soundproof & the hallway loud noise starts right at 7:00am when the cleaners start. Also the TV didn't work, there was no toilet paper holder and the shower handle was about to fall off. They fixed the last 2 very quickly. By the 3rd night I considered changing rooms. After talking to night staff about options, she said someone could help me move to a quieter area on the end of a hallway on the 2nd flr at the back of the bldg. The next morning I noticed the long hallway of rooms was being renovated, construction materials, music blaring & workers everywhere. I couldn't believe they moved me to a wing under renovation when I requested a quieter room. Although they started work later at 8:00, it was still a noisy room from the heating/ac unit. Like a jet plane powering up & down. And the housekeeping room was directly across from my room. Pros: I really enjoyed the large spotless hottub spa and sauna. The gym looked pretty comprehensive. No locker rooms but there is a bathroom.

Hard to picture? Seeing is believing…Spraying is believing.

After out shopping I’d come in the lobby and a few of staff would just look at you and look away,,, maybe I’m old-school, but I always figured that the staff should greet you with a smile instead of a “bothered” look. Anyways their loss because I’m a nice guy; would stay here get regardless of their attitude. Housekeeping very friendly ….

    This hotel was the ideal location for our plans over the weekend, and the room was much more spacious than I was expected for a two double bed room. The only reason I am giving it a four star over a five star is because a maintenance team started working right outside our room at 9:30 in the morning, which was extremely disruptive.

    This was a very nice hotel close to the lake and restaurants. The lobby and terrace were very comfortable. I was in my own and felt safe staying here and getting food from the nearby restaurants. However, the bed was not comfortable. The microwave panel was loose and there was a musty smell from the carpet. I really liked the room layout but being on the 2nd floor on the parking lot side I could hear everyone talking as they were coming and going. In the morning at 8:45 there were no hot eggs and I didn’t ask if they were going to have anymore and I would have liked a bowl for my oatmeal. I did purchase some popcorn for my evening snack. I only wish there were alcohol beverages to purchase as well. The room and bathroom were very clean as was the little chair that I sat in. I would stay again. But I would ask for a higher room away from the noise of the parking lot.

    The hotel was good overall. Clean and comfortable, decent breakfast. The room could use some improvement. There was not enough lighting - no overhead light, and no light on the desk, so the center of the room was not well lit. The A/C was very loud. The shower only had one of those fixed half doors, so it was hard to take a shower without making a mess on the floor.

    Unfortunately I was not pleased with the room booked when I arrived. The room looked nothing like what was pictured on Expedia. The bathroom was outdated, which I noticed upon arrival. I also had a chance to see the bathroom pictured, in another room that housekeeping was servicing. The bathroom fan motor was extremely loud. The building is covered in ivy, which has cicadas in it that are chirping too loud outside of the building. Parking is $39 per night, with no security, the pavement is uneven and there was a clogged drain that was causing ponding in the lot. The blinds were damaged upon arrival. I’m well traveled and for the money I spent I could’ve stayed somewhere better. It just happens to be convenient for the event I was attending. The free breakfast isn’t worth the bait and switch. I would stay in this area again. But never again at this Best Western location. First and last time.

No effort except to charge 240 bucks for the wrong night. I never checked in. Did not stay. Never set one foot inside the property. Called them: sir, you have to go through expedia. Called expedia: sir, you have to go through Best Western. Ive been loyal to BW for years. Ive usually had good experiences with expedia. Well, thats done with.

    The rooms are extremely comfortable and nicely appointed for the value. The location of this property is terrific - there is reasonably priced parking for guests in a lot immediately adjacent to the hotel, which adds to the ease of getting around and the sense of security in an unfamiliar place. The terrace is an absolute oasis and encourages relaxed hangs and chats with your companions. The property is within walking distance of countless great restaurants, drugstores, and shops. Check out the Farmer's Market a few blocks up the street on Saturday mornings!

But the hotel needs a better plan for addressing guests’ needs.

    However, if you're planning to work remotely from your room, be aware that the Wi-Fi is a major issue. I’ve been here all day trying to work, and the connection has been unreliable and extremely slow. I called the front desk, and while they acknowledged another guest had also complained, they said their IT team confirmed it was running fine — it’s not. The fitness room is very small, with just one treadmill, bike, and elliptical — enough for a quick workout, but nothing more. Also, the housekeeping staff is quite loud as they go from room to room, which can be disruptive during the day. Overall, it’s a well-maintained and comfortable hotel, but not ideal for remote work.

    The Hawthorne Terrace deserves a 5 star rating, if only the staff could learn to put on a friendly face. It starts at the front desk where the women consistently avoid eye contact rather than greet guests as they enter the door. This sets the tone for the rest of the staff for whom guests seem to be an inconvenience. Even the breakfast lady stands impatiently waiting for you to get out of her way. Too bad because it's a nice property in a fantastic location so close to the lake.

    I genuinely wish this review could be more positive, but my experience at the Best Western Plus Hawthorne Terrace left me deeply disappointed and questioning whether I was truly welcome as a Black guest. After working an overnight shift with no sleep, I arrived in Chicago early and hoped to check in or at least rest in the lobby. I politely asked the front desk staff if there were any rooms available. She checked the system and said no — that my room wouldn't be ready until around 2pm. Fair enough. I asked if I could stay in the lobby to wait, and she said sure. But here's where it gets hard to ignore how different my treatment felt. About 30 minutes later, I witnessed another guest — a white man — walk up and ask if he could check in early. Without hesitation, she said yes and began checking him in. No mention of fees, no attitude, no resistance. I was confused but gave her the benefit of the doubt. I approached her again, asked the same question, and was denied — again. Later, I made a friendly gesture by asking for brochures to lighten the mood, and then she suddenly brought up the option to upgrade my “queen room” for $85 — plus $40 for early check-in. I was stunned. First, none of this was mentioned to the guest she helped before me. Second, I had already paid nearly $40 more than the average price for this "cheap" room through a third-party site. When I pointed this out, she dismissively told me she couldn’t.
