Hotel Versey

Nice boutique hotel. Quirky, which adds to its charm. The rooms are quite dated and a tad bit funky. If you like posh and polish and perfection, pass on this place. But if you like character and a little oddity, this place is good and convenient to the areas north of downtown (Lincoln Park ish). They’re a Hilton affiliate and didn’t offer the Diamond benefits I love. But that didn’t matter much as the front desk staff were all nice and easy to deal with. Wish we’d had a view of something other than a brick wall…but we weren’t in the room for the view so not a huge problem. The rooms, however, are not soundproof, so if you’re enjoying adult activities, the other guests will almost certainly hear.

This hotel is in a great location. There are numerous restaurants and stores within walking distance. The neighborhood is vibrant and walkable. The hotel itself is located on the upper floors of a historic building. Yes, it’s old, and it shows. It’s part of the charm in my opinion. Everything was spotlessly clean and fresh, and for the price, I can’t complain. The hotel was recently converted to the Hilton portfolio of brands and renovations are underway. As a result, there is no restaurant at the moment, and valet parking is unavailable. A parking garage is located a block away, and there are so many other food options nearby that this wasn’t a major issue. The staff at the front desk were all very hospitable and welcoming. I would not hesitate to stay here again in the future and look forward to seeing the results of the updates being made to the facilities.

This hotel is ok- the rooms are pretty clean, staff is friendly and it has a fun vibe. It’s very close to a lot of great stuff and wasn’t terribly expensive. I will say that if this hotel is going to be a Hilton, then Hilton things need to be done to it very soon. The bathrooms are very old and with poor ventilation. The bathroom is also not accessible; they are very small and have a step up to it for some reason. The room finishes, doorways, halls and other amenities are old and everything is coated with paint to make it look better. Room service isn’t consistent either, we didn’t have any for 2 of our 3 nights here for some reason. I look forward to seeing this place get more cleaned up in due time when it’s a true Hilton. Overall, it’s not a bad place and I don’t think it was a bad value.

We've stayed here many times now and we have always had a nice experience. This trip was extra nice! The staff was super helpful and even upgraded us on our last night in town. 😊My only request would be to please lose the heavy perfume -like scent in the lobby. ❤️

This hotel is very noisy. The walls are paper thin, but I think that’s how a lot of structures are in Chicago, yuck. They seem to have a lot old structures used as hotels and spat buildings that are in need of insulation remodeling. Looks like it’s a wood frame paper thin construction building, I could hear the next-door people talking clearly, and the doors of this hotel slam so loudly.. Like really?!! You can’t add some door modulators so they close quietly, but yet you advertise it as a hotel by Hilton lol what a joke! All the it’s ridiculous to have that type of none existing noise insulation and construction in 2025 in the U.S. specially in big city like Chicago.. I got this hotel because of its location which is a pretty good location if you wanna be near Boys town, so I put up with it. Also the bathtub doesn’t drain properly and starts overflowing a bit while you are taking a shower, creating a pool of dirty water on your feet, had to rinse feet after coming out of the shower individually for full cleanliness… Again, by Hilton LOL haha.. comedy is everywhere

Great location. Friendly staff. Lobby has a cool vibe. Room was clean enough. However… Our room felt more like a dorm room. The bathroom is in terrible need of an update. The walls were not very soundproof. This hotel is in the process of changing from a Day’s Inn to a Hilton. We adore staying at the funky Graduate hotels and this feels like it’s trying to offer that vibe. It’s not quite Hilton worthy yet.

This hotel has recently started a new association with Hilton. I am unsure to what extent they are involved, but I thought best to mention that this was one huge factor for staying here as well as my daughter living 5 minutes away. I had been reading the reviews over the last several months and mostly they have been good. Now here is my take. Staff is very friendly and quick to respond to anything important. Check in was easy. I was not thanked for being a diamond member. I found the rooms to be adequate. On par for a somewhat dated Hampton Inn, IMO. Rooms were clean. I was notified at check in that housekeeping was only every 3 days. I asked for every day and they obliged. I don't believe there is a restaurant on-site, so no breakfast. I also didn't get the normal daily credit as with other Hilton properties. My biggest gripe about this hotel is the smell. There is a heavy floral scent pumped in to the hallway, lobby and staircases. Honestly to the point that I would consider staying elsewhere in the future. Throw in some whiffs of pot/weed and you get the idea. Maybe the floral scent was to cover that up? I don't know. Also, decor is very dated. I assume some may like it, with the Chicago theme, but it is just way too much for me. easily could be toned down, and would be much classier. This location very close to Lincoln Park Zoo, DePaul, and the train line (brown/purple) which is about 7 minute walk. The area was safe. Lots of places to eat close by.

We enjoyed our stay in this favorite hotel again. The entrance had a new impressive contemporary exhibit of custom-made artworks! Open area hotel lobby is a true modern interior design inspiration with interesting collection of artifacts related to Chicago's history on the wall! |Our room was bright, clean and comfortable. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our 5 nights stay. They were responsive, friendly and competent. Adrian was extremely helpful with our request.|This boutique hotel Versey is within walking distance of shops, good restaurants; located near Lake Michigan and Lincoln Park & Zoo. |We love this hotel and would happily visit again.

Hotel Versey is a quaint boutique hotel set in an old building. Some of the windows are old and being on the second floor we could hear street noise very well. That was probably the biggest con. The beds (2 queen) were super comfortable, our room had a nespresso machine, microwave and fridge. The whole place has quite the vibe! Colorful with a cool entry and lobby. It's close to Wrigley field, a bus is right outside the door, and the brown line train is a few blocks down. I'd definitely stay here again.

DON'T STAY HERE!!! I have never stayed in a hotel before that changes prices every night!!!! I unfortunately did not ask for a itemized receipt upon checkout. My mistake for trusting them!!! I made my reservation for a certain price per night and got ripped off!!! Room's bathroom was in horrible condition with tile chips and chips in the tub that were rusted. I asked for for a discount which they wouldn't do but moved us to a different room that was better, but had to argue with a horribly rood manager. Didn't catch her name. If I had another place to stay near by I would have walked out Be warned and confirm that you are going to pay the same rate each night of your stay. Or, better yet DON'T STAY HERE!!! ALSO, the hallway you walk through to get to the front desk had a bad smell.

Stayed for a couple of days. The room was big. There's only one elevator. I did see a bug in the bathroom. There was no refrigerator. The art was cool. Parking is like a block away.

We paid third party and upon check in the front desk seemed a little sketchy in finding our reservation. The next day at checkout they check us out and charged us again but double the cost, even though i had a pre paid copy of my third party reservation they refused to credit my card. I had to get hotels.com and discover on the phone. Magically after a 30 minute ordeal they found my initial third party reservation and released the additional charges. Scam scam scam.

Everything about this hotel is disappointing- the rooms are incredibly small, the bathroom rusty and dirty, and they nickel and dime for everything. The walls are SO thin you can hear everything going on in other rooms. My boyfriend and I booked a hotel room for 1 night for a little getaway and were woken every 10 minutes (seriously I'm not exaggerating) to the sound of a man screaming. Finally around 4am I had to call down about the noise and was met with a curt "security is on their way". The day staff that checked us in was very accommodating but the morning staff was outright rude. I called to inquire about a late check out and was told "we don't do that" and when I questioned it was cut off and sternly told "we don't do that." 100% I will not be coming back and do not recommend.

Reasonable price and walkable location to lake attractions, local restaurants, Wrigley. We liked experiencing the neighborhood because it didn't feel touristy and overpriced.

I enjoyed the location. The rooms are extremely small almost on NYC scale. The bathrooms have a step up and you will break your toe until you get used to it. It's in a good location for most any restaurant and coffee shops. Easy access to public transportation, as well as walking distance to most things in Lincoln Park/Lakeview. They do have a reciprocal availability to LA fitness which is right next-door. This is very convenient and it's a great facility. Parking is a big hectic. It's $25 a night for parking but there is no in and out. I was able to find a spot on "spot hero "for $20 a day that was a block away. This allowed me to use my car at any time to travel the city. Rooms, clean, and tidy. No refrigerator and the ice machine on my floor was broken.... No fault of anybody those things to go down. The worst thing about the room was whoever was staying next-door, the walls are paper thin. Arguments throughout the night the TV blasting chatter was so damn annoying. I guess I could have asked for a different room, but I wasn't there that often.

I'm giving two stars to not seem too dramatic. Actually it really is a one. I hate being in this place. The front desk guys were pretty nice, but this hotel is awful. I'm currently in a 4th floor room. It smells like cigarettes. I felt the need to check for bed bugs. There's no fridge. It felt like it was 90 degrees when I walked into the room before turning on the AC. The windows are pointless because all you can see is another brick building ten feet away. The soap is awful and cheap and even the towels are weird. There's two six dollar figi water bottles on the end table which sound ridiculous but are actually sounding pretty good. It's got some of the worst fake hotel "art" I've ever seen. I made the mistake of not being drunk in this hellhole. Do not stay here.

I stayed two nights here on a trip to the city, it's the best hotel in the area for the price, for sure. When I first checked in, the two men at the front desk gave me a room that reeked of cigarettes. They seemed to know it was going to smell bad? I came right back down and they gave me another room, thank goodness. Cons: the numbering of the rooms was done by someone who doesn't know how numerical order should work in architecture, there's some cracking in the walls and tub, the rooms desperately need fridges and microwaves. Pros: amazing location, nice enough staff, COVID protocols, decent sound control for Chicago. Cute boutique style.

Quick night stay for a concert. Everything was great. The room was clean and the location was perfect as the concert was at the Vic which was a 15 minute walk. Lots of options for food and drink.

The Versey is my go to hotel in Chicago . In the heart of boystown, the staff is so helpful and Ryan and Adrian went out of their way to make my stay more pleasant , helped me with a speedy check in and got me settled in no time. My room was huge and comfortable and I had everything I needed. Even saved some cash by being able to store and heat food in my room. Love this place and love the good people!!

I am at that point in life where the past, present, and future all blend together in a surreal way. Its called aging. Last night, I stayed overnight at The Hotel Versey , a historical site on the Northside of Chicago that has always been a lodging establishment since the 1920s. In its original version, I believe it may have been affordable lodging on a long term basis. I used to live in Chicago and I visit often. I know this hotel in a previous version did not have a good reputation. It was run down and poorly maintained. When Priceline gave a set price for a mysterious random selected hotel out of three, the Hotel Versey was one of them. I opted to save money on a overbooked Labor Day weekend and hoped for the best. The Hotel Versey markets itself as a memorabilia/boutique hotel representing the sites history hosting bands like the smashing pumpkins and earlier artists at the time when Jazz was newish. Adjacent to the hotel is the Century Shopping Mall, which has its own history of survival being one of the few remaining movie palaces from the 1920s/1930s. You wouldn't know this though as the theater as been dissected and subdivided over the decades with Landmark Cinemas on the top floors and an Axe throwing venue on the bottom floor. So, the Hotel Versey is like an old friend in the neighborhood to the Century Mall as both survives the decades. Historically, I"m sure performers of the Century Theater stayed at the Diversey Arms, the Hotel Versey's first namesake. With this in mind, the rooms are small and I'm not sure bathrooms were originally part of the room. The small size of the room was also reminiscent of rooms in Europe that are small compared the the usual size of hotel room in a typical mainstream hotel. There was a window in my room, but faced the side of another building giving the room a claustrophobic feeling. The backdrop of the room was painted with famous sites/intersections in Chicago. The room was clean. The room had a Nespresso machine, but did not have a refrigerator, which I consider a standard amenity in a room currently. Other than revelers of a group in multiple rooms coming back from a wedding, the htel was quiet. Well, I guess a window facing the side of another building rather than Diversey or Clark also enhances the quietness of the room. For a building so old and with several rebrandings, I'm surprised I didn't bump into a spirit or two. No spirits in my room or on the floor as far as I know. Overall, the Hotel Versey was clean and worth the price I paid. Let's get refrigerators in the room.

DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS HOTEL! THEY WILL LIE TO YOU ABOUT WHAT IS AVAILABLE! THE HOTEL ITSELF IS DISGUSTING! I booked a room for myself and my father because we were visiting my newborn nephew. We specifically wanted a room with a King Bed and a pull-out Sofa Bed. I booked a hotel in downtown Chicago but I was recommended Hotel Versey which was closer to my nephew. I no longer talk to that person because anyone who would recommend this nightmare of a Hotel is not someone I want in my life. I called and confirmed with the hotel 5 times that I had a room with a King Bed and a pull-out sofa bed. I confirmed with Isaiah and he told me his GM Johnathon confirmed that we had the room we wanted. When we arrived we were told by Keith in a VERY condescending tone that not only do we not have a room with a pull-out Sofa Bed but we NEVER had that room booked. I talked to several people afterward including an extremely rude front desk person named Chris and a passive aggressive Assistant GM named Celeste and received stories that just further proved they were lying from the beginning. First, I was told by Keith that they have rooms with a pull-out sofa bed but we didn't get one because of the dates we selected. Then I was told by Celeste that they do not have a room with a pull-out sofa bed but they do have a cot which was never offered to us at any point. Chris just yelled at us that it wasn't HIS PROBLEM SO THERE'S NOTHING HE CAN DO! Imagine a full grown adult being THAT bad at their job! Each person I spoke to at this hotel had the same response - no apology and blaming me for not knowing what rooms they had. I requested multiple times for the GM Johnathon to contact me and left my phone number with every front desk person and not once received a call from him. Customer service incompetence aside - the hallways reak of cigarettes and the cleaning lady is a ghost because we never saw her. There would just be random cleaning carts blocking the hallway. We called several times and asked for them to clean the rooms but we only had it "cleaned" once and the "cleaning" was replacing the towels with two tiny towels. The non-sofa-bed sofa was sticky and hot to the touch. If I could give zero stars I would. They offered a slight refund when really they should be paying people to stay at this dumpster fire. I will NEVER book a room with Wyndham or Hotel Versey ever again. They blatantly lied to me and my father to get us to book a room with them and then never once apologized. I will tell anyone I know to never book a room with Wyndham and/or Hotel Versey. Heed my warning and DO NOT book. You would serve yourself better just sleeping in the sewers.

Big shout out for Adrian and Solomon who helped make our stay stellar. Their customer service was outstanding. Thumbs up!

nice staff when arrive without any reservations and brought full ice bucket for me end august 2024

No issues for us and if you go take the upgraded business King room! Huge!! We had great convos and tips on everything from the staff at front desk! Great people and location was par to none unless you choose to stay on the main strips! Definitely plan to Uber Everywhere! The parking garage is tricky and you can't get your money back if you mess up so make sure your clear on that!

I booked a stay here June 8-11th. The staff was extremely l nice and accommodating so this review is not a knock on them at all. That being said, the hotel itself is in need of an upgrade. The downstairs lobby is very nicely decorated and modern, however the rooms are lacking in basic amenities. There is no fridge and no microwave in the rooms, and the dresser, desk and chair is worn. The doors are also paper thin, so you can hear everything that is going on in the hallway. The curtains do not close, and the blind they have on the window let's a tremendous amount of light into the room, and the door doesn't seal well so you can see light coming in from around the entire door. The shower was extremely temperamental. The temperature fluctuated constantly. When in the shower the water would go from lukewarm to scalding hot to cold. The smallest tweak of the hot water would send the temperature either way too hot or way too cold. The plus side is the pillows, bedding and beds were pretty decent. The location is also pretty convenient. For $400 per night, I expected WAY more from this. I'm very disappointed, and if given the choice I would not stay here or recommend this to anyone.

Been here twice. Both times the service was excellent at the front desk. Had two of the best nights of sleep in our lives on their deluxe mattresses. Recommend highly.

*All photos in this review are from the second room we got moved to* Starting with the good, the staff was very nice and they do validate (discount) parking at the mall! Our hotel was located perfectly in Wrigleyville so we could walk everywhere and take the train into the city. Sadly there were more cons than pros. I reserved the hotel on Expedia and on their website they were calling the beds "queen size". We got into our room and realized that the beds are actually FULL size beds. We were confused so we called down and they said they would change our room to a queen size bed. We get up to our new room and realize that not only was the bed the same size, they also gave us a smaller room that was not completely clean. The hallway into the room couldn't fit one person with luggage and the room could barely fit the two of us that were staying there. There were odd stains in the carpet every where, cracked baseboards, used hand towels that were not picked up, broken smoke alarm, broken door and stains in the duvet. We love Chicago but ended up being really disappointed in our room and lack of cleanliness.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. During a weekend trip to Chicago from NYC, a friend and I booked a room here since it's only a 10 minute Uber ride from downtown. We were able to check in late and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The hotel was recently redone - it has a quirky baseball theme and the wall art makes it an Instagram treasure for any millennial. The elevator is covered in fun quotes and the decor is modern. Our room was spacious - two full beds with great pillows and fresh clean towels. My only strange find was a mysterious brown stain on the rug near our bathroom, but I covered it up with a towel and pretended it wasn't there because I didn't want to think about it's origins. Out of sight, out of mind! Checkout was quick and easy, and the location is great. Not only is it close to downtown, but it's across the street from a couple of clothing stores. A Starbucks, and a pharmacy. There is a Stan's Donuts on the corner which is very convenient as well. I'd stay here again!

I'm sorry to say that we had a terrible experience at this hotel as we moved in our kid to college. I thought we were booking a renovated small hotel stay as we took the big step of moving in our freshman to college. Looked like a cute boutique hotel upon entry- not your average "budget" (but not really budget) hotel. But upon opening our hotel room, we were overcome by a foul smell of what seemed like vomit. Given that we had to drop off our bags and head to the school for our move-in window, we noticed only the bad smell. We brought it up to the front desk who seemed fairly dismissive and told us the hotel was booked. Another member of the staff overheard our discussion and said he'd spray the room with air freshener. Hoping that would work, we left for the school. After move-in, we headed back to the hotel to get ready for dinner out. The room still smelled horrible and then we noticed the stains. Gross. We would have checked out if we could get our $475/night refunded (I guess those are college move-in rates). I bought scented sprays from the urban outfitters across the street hoping to kill the stink and needed copious amounts of alcohol to get into the bed. Thankfully I brought my flip flops. On top of it all, the AC didn't work on an unusually hot Chicago weekend. I've traveled a ton, for work and pleasure. My two expectations are I think pretty reasonable- a clean room and nice service. With COVID, I try to be flexible on the latter knowing places are short-staffed. After completing a hotel survey, I was offered a small discount on my next stay. Um, no thanks. Couldn't pay me to stay there. Since I can't seem to put in no stars, the one star is for location.

Fairly decent. Newley remodeled and I overheard the front desk gentlemen explain the theme to a guest : new meets old and random. Interesting hipster type decor in the lobby. No gym but guests can use the LA Fitness (building behind, enter through Century and go to back elevators to take you to seventh floor). No rootop either unfortunately. Beds are soft, possibly too soft for me. Room is clean and nice. Two full beds for a double occupancy room....a full is just not big enough for two adults. Our original room had a wet water spot on the carpet (not visible) and got worse throughout the day; hotel staff was immediately responsive and moved us to a new room. Perfect location though - tons of restaurants and shops. Walgreens, Target, Trader Joe's, Chipotle all nearby. Walk the extra block east to Yolk for breakfast (so good we went twice on our two day stay), definitely skip the Original Pancake house

The hotel is located right next to Stans donuts and across the street from Starbucks. Check in was a breeze and parking is a short walk around the corner costing 20 dollars a day. The decor of the hotel is colorful, fun, and quirky. It's an older hotel so the rooms are small, the bathrooms tiny, and the walls thin. Our room was clean and in our opinion, cute, but unfortunately we could hear conversation from the room next to us and they were not talking very loud. Honestly it didn't bother us too much as we both slept like logs in the comfortable beds. If you're a light sleeper, you might want to bring ear plugs or skip this hotel. We liked it and will recommend it to friends.

Hotel Versey used to be an old Days Inn and although it was converted to a new & fun Cubs themed hotel, I was still able to use my Wyndham Rewards points to get out room! We specifically chose this hotel because it was Cubs themed and because it was just under 1 mile to Wrigley Field. We were attending a night game and it was an easy walk to and from. I knew the rooms would be tiny before we arrived (it's a Chicago hotel!) So the small room was not a surprise. A queen it big enough for 2 people and that's it. We were just there to sleep. The Wrigley wall behind the bed was pretty cool! If you are claustrophobic you might have an issue with the elevator. It's very small and can hold about 4-5 people. It is pretty cool though and decided wall-to-ceiling with bumper stickers. Don't drink the water in the room unless you want to pay $5. Right across the street is a Walgreens where you can pick up drinks and snacks for cheap. There is no microwave or fridge in the room. Oh, and there is a Nespresso machine in the room too! Also, we ordered a super late night DoorDash order with no problem, but you'll need to meet them in the lobby some it requires a key to use the elevator. Speaking of elevator, we requested a room away from the elevator based on reviews and got one away from it. No problems with hearing that but the walls are very thin and you can easily hear your neighbors or people in the hall. It's an old, small hotel and again, not surprising to me. There is a lot of shopping across the street (TJMaxx, etc.) and places to eat around. We had a good stay and the front desk guys were hilarious and friendly!

We arrived at night and the receptionist was very polite. The room was huge, clean and comfortable. The hotel has a super modern and cool decor. We slept very well. Good location, close to several things. The day we went, we got a discount at the donut shop around the corner. Super approved.

Why 4 stars? Because we liked everything but the thin walls. --- --- --- My dad and I were in town for a couple of days to visit Wrigley Field and this looked to be the best hotel at an affordable rate that was walking distance from the stadium. It honestly had everything we could have hoped for - the rooms were nice, the beds were comfortable, the location was great and the price was the best in the area. Fortunately the biggest negative at this hotel didn't affect me very much because I'm an incredibly deep sleeper, but when I was awake, the sounds from the street were obnoxiously loud. It was almost as if the exterior walls were made from the same material as the interior walls because everything happening on the street below sounded like it was coming from the other side of room. My dad said that at one point in the middle of the night, a firetruck drove by and it was incredibly obnoxious. I sort of remember that happening, but it was almost like it was inside of a quasi-dream. Ah, to be blessed with deep sleeping. But they also started construction at the first moments of the sun rising in the morning, and from the moment I woke up, there was no falling back asleep due to all of that racket. Outside of that, I'd be hard pressed to find a flaw in our stay. The bathrooms aren't very updated, I guess? But that didn't bother a couple of guys in town to go to baseball games. If you're in town to go to Wrigley, you won't regret your decision to stay here, unless you're a light sleeper. In that case, you may want to ask for a room off of the street, if they have those.

I absolutely loved my two stays at Hotel Versey. The location could not be better considering downtown is close and the airport is a quick Uber or bus/subway ride away. The hotel is iconic in Boystown and offers all of the amenities you need to recharge, recoup, and get ready for your day. The wireless internet is fast and free. The rooms are perfectly plush with outlets to charge your electronics near your bed. I was absolutely pleased with the abundance of television stations as well, especially during the time when I just want to relax. The rooms are trendy with special touches. I can't explain it in words. It is very cool here. A huge plus is gym access next door at LA Fitness. It beats a small hotel gym. It was an absolutely amazing perk! The staff are really courteous and help you choose a room to your liking. Overall, I can't wait for my next stay when I am in Chicago. I work in Chicago about 10 times a year and Hotel Versey definitely got me hooked!

+.5 for service Nestled in the North Side, it's definitely a hotel that's somewhat different from others. The walls are covered with local Chicago goodies, including some Cubs decor. Staff was excellent. Not much needs to be said beyond that, it really was. Even though our room hosted a party that caused a bit of ruckus (apologies for that), the staff were still courteous and cleaned our mess up without penalizing us. As for the rooms...yes, they were small. My group of 4 were stepping over each other quite often cause of the room size. Also yes, the walls were quite thin. It was fun hearing conversations from our neighbouring room about...stuff I won't mention here. Given the price we paid, I wouldn't give this a straight up 4 star. The uniqueness and courtesy was there, but the room size and thin walls just didn't cut it.

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Versey. It was perfect for a quick Chicago trip. There are tons of restaurants within walking distance.

Took my money, cheap customer service. No consideration for their customers. This trip was right before COVID 19 ramped up and travel restrictions were put in place. Great price, nice decor walking in to lobby, convenient snacks by the elevator. However, there is just one elevator... tiny... and it takes forever. Better take the stairs... once you get to your room, they look pretty old and feels like they just threw some paint on the walls and added hotel furniture in it. Again, great price though. Day one- Saturday morning. the waiting area smelled like weed.... with No Smoking signs posted... didn't bother me, but was interesting to experience. Specially if there are kids checking in to the hotel. Day two, I was recalled by my job to returned to work ASAP. I work in a Medical Facility. Instead of staying until Wednesday, I had to leave Monday morning. Spoke to a member at the front desk about adjusting my dates for my stay and if I would be able to get reimbursed-- i was told that because I booked with a third party (Priceline), I would have to work this through them. I called Priceline and they agreed to refund me. However, before this can happen, the hotel must also agree. Priceless called the Hotel and was informed that they did not agree and unfortunately I could not be reimbursed. Despite of us being in a Pandemic and forced to go back home. Only stayed 2 of the 5 nights---- because of the pandemic! They refused to refund me. Do not stay here... look for other options.

The hotel pictures online do not match at all this is a basic college dorm room and insanely priced for the condition of the rooms.

This place is a sad excuse for a Wyndham. Our shower shot water in all directions, on the mirror, out of the wall, filled the bathroom and leaked into the bedroom. The front desk employee was watching the news at full volume on their smart phone when we asked about check out times and the response was "you'll have to talk to the person here in the morning". Weird that this place is able to call themselves a Wyndham. The service is a joke and incredibly inappropriate for a place that is in the service industry. All they did was put paint on a shithole. But there are beds to sleep in if that's all you need.

December stay and it exceeded my expectations. Location is awesome. We were visiting family in the area and decided we would rather stay close enough to walk so we tried Hotel Versey. The staff was very nice and the parking arrangement with the garage around the corner worked out perfectly for us. The hotel has been spruced up and is kept very clean. There are so many fantastic restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance even in the Chicago cold. You have easy access to public transportation. I would definitely stay again.

This hotel manager is a fucking asshole!!!! I came after an altercation w my husband. Booked on hotels tonight for 2 nights.. came in clearly distraught with my 2 toddlers at 10 pm at night during quarantine. clearly I was desperate . I had booked on hotels tonight last minute and I guess the hotel selected a one bed room but with my two kids obviously I need two beds, well it's quarantine so I know that this hotel barely has anyone staying in it , so I asked if they would change me to two beds ( every other hotel i have EVER stayed at will offer you one king (or Queen) OR two doubles. They usually don't make a fuss or charge if you need a room with 2 beds" BUT he said no they were going to charge me another $20 to add an extra bed. when I know that they're completely empty so then I asked to speak with a manager and he said NO you pay the $20 or you can go ahead and cancel your reservation!!!!!! like literally going to turn me away for $20 to add an extra bed onto my room for my two kids so we could sleep comfortable. and he was rude as fuck about it so I've stayed here three other times prior but after this visit I will never fucking stay here ever again. ALSO want to add it clearly states on the hotels tonight website that the HOTEL chooses what room you get.. THEY put me in a 1 bed room and then made me have to change it when they were the ones who selected the room. There was never a room type selected when booked it.

I was pleasantly surprised that this place was so nice. On arrival there was construction going on but they had adequate signs and it was very easy to check in. They had very good security not only entering the building but the elevators and Flores all had security key cards. It was a prime location for my first time in Chicago and I was able to experience walking distance nearby delicious places. I was so excited to come back to see more of the city. They service was courteous and professional and I couldn't be more pleased. The beds were comfortable and clean as for the bathrooms. I said only two nights but it was more than enough to experience this a great hotel for a quality price.

First, let me say the front desk is friendly and super helpful. The location is convenient and the lobby ver hip and comfortable. But don't kid yourself, this is just a Days Inn with cool stickers. The bathroom vanity is high enough for your toddler but not for you. And don't even think about taking a bath unless you scrub the filthy tub out first.

First impression:: I have never heard of this hotel before, but my fiancé booked it for a quick weekend getaway. We got upgraded to a larger room and they we're about to charge us extra, which doesn't really make it an upgrade. I am glad that my fiancé is very meticulous and remembers all of the pricing info because I would have just paid for the extra. Rooms:: I didn't read any review it before we got here and the biggest complaints were that the walls are paper thin, that the rooms are super small, and that some of the staff wasn't great. As far as the rooms go once we were upgraded it was actually a decent size room. We were on the second floor and had plenty of space in the bathroom was very nice. We had two windows that look to directly into another building but other than that overall happy with the room. The walls however were very thin. I noticed there was a child standing on the floor so I the crying got to be an issue at some point. We weren't near the elevator so luckily we didn't have to hear everybody getting on and off the elevator. Staff:: The staff however I found to be very nice. We had to deal with them a few different times for random things such as holding our bags after we had already checked out. They were super friendly and accommodating. The room service ended up cleaning our room although we did have the do not disturb sign up. This could be an issue for some people but for us it worked out fine anyway. Location/price:: This was the biggest plus about the hotel. When you look in the area we wanted to be in, there aren't many other hotels around especially in this price range. If you are someone who wants to be pampered and the hotel experience is high on your list of priorities then maybe this isn't the best place to stay in Chicago. If a hotel room on vacation is a place to lay down your bags so you can get out the door and explore, this place checks off all the boxes for me.

I usually stay in River North or along Magnificent Mile but the transit to Boystown became a hassle so i finally opted for a hotel in Boystown. It was between City Hotel and Suites or the Versey. This hotel is owned by the Days Inn/Wydham Group I paid $84/night for this place and i wouldnt stay here again. A few irritating things...the front desk manages to blurt out what website i booked the room to the whole lobby. Not sure why it mattered to mention that to me. When handing me my key she holds it up so the whole line of people so they can see what room im in instead of placing it on the counter like a normal hotel. The hotel elevator was down so i had to lug my luggage up 2 flights of narrow stairs. No compensation, upgrade or notice of when it will return to service mentioned. It was out the entire stay. The main door you have to pull out to enter it meaning you have to put down your luggage and hope the door stays open long enough to hopefully get you in. The front valet didnt bother helping. If you dont ask for gym information they wont bother to mention it. Oh and you have to bring your own lock to the gym. Like yeah i bring locks while traveling. The hotel should have them to loan out. The gym has you take a photo when you arrive for what reason is unknown but i went along with it. The room furnishings were dated. The outside and lobby look fancy, but they forgot to update the room and bathroom decor. Think oak veneer paneling on bathroom cabinets from the 1980s and the smallest sink ive ever seen in a hotel. The water pressure was horrible and the sink was all of 3 feet tall with no shelves to place anything. The toilet was so low to the ground as well. I had to use the toilet lid as a shelf my toiletry bag. Room doors SLAM shut all day starting at 7am and every 20 mins until youre up and out of the room or perhaps it was the laundry shoot door that kept slamming. Would have gladly upgraded if the front desk agent merely offered me options. If you book on HotelTonight youll get a JR.room on the opposite side of the elevator/stairwell. Sound traveled easily between the rooms. You can hear crystal clear conversations and tv or music next door. I even heard next door person at 0500 on a call, coughing and whatever else. They were nice enough, albeit reluctantly to extend me an hour later check out, but upon asking they said they didnt have anything later. Mind you i didnt notice a hoard of people in the hotel to begin with. I wouldnt stay here again. While location was ideal the service and general hospitality was lacking and room furnishings were dated. City Suites Hotel which was my original choice and will be my next option.

When planning our trip we searched multiple hotels and selected the Versey due to price and location to Wrigley! When we booked we were offered a discount as we were attending a Cubs game. However in order to take advantage of the discount we had to prepay for the stay. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the hotel and area. The hotel was built in 1800's. Changed names a few times, once even a days inn. 4 years ago became the Versey! The decor was uplifting and unique. We selected a regular king room and was amazed at the size of the room! The room was sparkling clean! Bed very comfortable. The draw backs for us was no mini fridge in the room! The doors were not sealed well as light entered the room all around the door. In addition the doors were not soft close doors found in your newer hotels. So we were woken numerous times due to the slamming of other room doors. The water was wonderfully warm however shower had very little pressure, so don't count on your shower to blast you awake. In addition to the room rate you are charged a parking rate. Overnight guest are charged $40. This is for valet service and you have unlimited in/outs. You need to allow them at least 15 min to bring your vehicle around. (This rate is very comparable to other hotels around) Best part for us was it's within walking distance to Wrigley...20 minutes.

Honestly this hotel was great! 5 Stars because it's the nicest Day's Inn I've ever stayed in. Don't get me wrong...it's no Ritz Carlton, but for a Day's Inn it's pretty top notch! Clean, comfortable, large room Free breakfast (nothing fancy, but will tide you over til lunch) Super friendly and helpful staff Great location Affordable rate What else do you need? I didn't come to Chicago to hang out in a hotel room. I came to explore the city and have fun. I wasn't looking for anything more than a clean place to rest my head and shower. This hotel exceeded my expectations! I MUCH preferred staying in Lincoln Park than downtown. Lots of cute and AFFORDABLE restaurants, bars & shops all within walking distance. Neighborhood is lively and felt very safe. This will be my first choice next time I'm in Chicago! If you're looking to hang at Navy Pier all day and do a bunch of touristy stuff...you're prob better off downtown. If you're looking to check out cool, local places, have a low key trip and not spend a fortune...you'll love this place!

Welcome to the new Hotel Versey! The Days Inn is transforming back to its roots where musicians stayed. New murals in the rooms.New Google Chrome Cast TVs. New murals in the check in area. New restaurant. Still free use of the LA Fitness. Great neighborhood. Trader Joes across the street. Several great cofffee places witiin steps. Walk to the Halstead. Rates still beat the Loop hotels during the week. I could go on. If you want to avoid the Michigan Avenue crowds, this is your hotel. Diversey stop on the CTA Brown Line subway. Recommended.

Neighborhood power outages make me do weird things...like, go into work and sleep on a sofa because none of my friends have an extra space or are without power themselves on what was one of the hottest nights of last year. They can also make me do sensible things...like, call up and book a room at the closest hotel to my darkened residence on a chilly late autumn night. A huge thank you to Days Inn Chicago for being a shining beacon of slumber while ComEd figured out how to fix a couple blown transformers. Kudos to this neighborhood hotel for being incredibly clean, cozy and affordable on a night when I was willing to spend twice as much for half the comfort. There are some really great extras in this hotel: the fantastic location with two major bus lines and a short distance to the Brown line, the complimentary continental breakfast, free Wi-Fi and a professional staff that went out of their way to give me a good rate for living through a crappy evening.

DONT STAY HERE- rude and unprofessional when even considering the fact I'm a disabled woman who has a registered service dog who requires to be with me at all times. The security is lacking in many ways and I don't think that there is a price that could be offered that would ever insure I'd feel safe

I absolutely love Hotel Versey! I wish I had found this place sooner and booked them for four days instead of only two and staying at another place for the other two days. Everything about them is great. The staff is wonderful, the decor is so vibrant and fun, the location is excellent - next to a bus stop and short walk to train, near tons of shops and restaurants, affordable and clean rooms, excellent ADA accessible rooms, mini fridge and microwave included, super convenient valet service, and overall great value and quality. They locked up my luggage for free, since I had a late flight, and have a public lobby bathroom which was super helpful. I also got my cash deposit back immediately upon check out with no issues, which cannot be said about every hotel or motel. Not sure what this place used to be like as a Days Inn or if they are still affiliated, but this place is top notch - great bang for your buck. This will be my go to place every time I'm in Chicago now.

My kids and I stayed here during our cross country trip and it was a perfect choice! Hotel is in a good location, rooms decent sized and we all loved the decor! If we come back to Chicago we will def stay here again!

I wouldn't even give it one star. The hotel is dingy and not up to standard for the price they charge. There's hair in the bathtub like it's never cleaned. The rub itself is yellow and stained. Water flow is like it's a dripping Fischer rather than an actual functional shower head the faucet of the tub has ancient fittings and spews brown water like it has not been used for ages. I am not happy with the stay at all.

The rooms are small and the walls are paper thin. I was in town for a funeral and checked in after the service and was exhausted after the flight, etc. It was so loud, I couldn't even take a nap. The bathroom was utterly disgusting and has not been updated since the hotel was built 80-90 years ago. 3 minutes into my shower, I was standing in ankle deep water. It was only for one nIght, and I chose the hotel so I could quickly walk to Boystown, but I'd have rather spent the same amount of money and had a real hotel in the loop rather than a low-end Days Inn with fancy wallpaper.

This place is super cute and trendy. While very small, the rooms are all nicely renovated and embrace the quirks of the historic building's footprint. The main reason I didn't give 5 stars was because the walls are not well insulated - you will hear the guests coming home after a late night game and be woken up in the morning by house keeping vacuuming the room next door. Other than that, this place was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful, and its location can't be beat. The neighborhood is great and easily walkable, with loads of nearby restaurants, shopping and bars. Note: rooms do not have microwaves or fridges. Breakfast is not provided on site.

This hotel is a wonderful, unique find! It's nestled between restaurants and shopping. From the moment you arrive there is a friendly helpful face. The hotel is decorated in tasteful, imaginative art work. The lobby is welcoming. There are games in the lobby and enough comfortable seating. All the attendants are helpful and friendly. The elevator is even decorated! We were greeted with a wonderful clean room. Very spacious and a fun view of the city. The mural representing the Wrigley Field is such an awesome detail. Very clean. Would recommend it to anyone who wants a fun, different, unique stay in Chicago!
