Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at Wicker Park Inn felt like a home away from home. The rooms, named after Chicago streets, were clean and comfortable, providing a cozy atmosphere. The service, especially from the owner of the inn, was very polite and welcoming. The location, nestled between Division Street and Milwaukie Ave, was convenient to numerous restaurants and shops, making it a great choice for a B&B experience. The dining, like in a traditional B&B, offered wonderful morning meals. Despite these positives, the dining area could use improvement, and the facilities were lacking compared to what I would expect from a B&B.
Staying at the Wicker Park Inn was a treat! The rooms were super comfortable and felt like a home away from home, beautifully designed with a hip, boutique element. The location was safe and convenient, with great restaurants within easy walking distance. The service was friendly and helpful, making me feel truly welcome. However, the owner's mistake about a reservation was a small hiccup. The dining experience was fantastic, with delicious, freshly prepared food. Overall, a great stay with excellent value for money.
I had a lovely stay at the Wicker Park Inn. The rooms were nice and quiet, perfect for getting a good night's rest with a nice view onto the Chicago elevated railway track. The service was mostly courteous and helpful, but there was a small issue with honoring a new reservation. The location was excellent, allowing me to explore the vibrant neighborhood easily. The dining experience with delicious breakfast was a pleasant surprise. The facilities were great overall.
My stay at the hotel was truly a mixed experience. On the positive side, the rooms had a beautifully designed, hip, boutique feel to them, almost like a home away from home. However, the service fell short as they refused to reimburse me for a mistake and the location, although in a lovely neighborhood, was not the most convenient for exploring the Wicker Park area. Nonetheless, the dining experience was a pleasant surprise, and the facilities were over the top.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very nice and clean, providing a comfortable stay, but being right next to the kitchen and train tracks was a downside. The location was convenient with plenty of nearby attractions, yet recent crime in the area made me feel a bit uneasy. The service was attentive and considerate, although there was an issue with honoring a new reservation. The dining was exceptional, offering a cozy atmosphere and delicious home-cooked meals.
My stay at this hotel was lovely. The rooms were super comfortable and well-equipped, although the noise from the passing L train at the back was a minor disturbance. The service was top-notch, with helpful and friendly staff always ready to assist. The location was ideal for exploring the city like a local, with great dining options within walking distance. The dining experience was a delight, with delicious freshly prepared food. Overall, a great stay with a few small drawbacks.
