What is a cheap hotel in Chicago, IL. Travel date is for mid October. Shared bath is OK for Senior traveler.?
Looking for budget hotel, private room, not hostel for two nights in Chicago, sometime in October. Are there any budget or one star hotels in Chicago on public transportation route.
My search only turns up hotels in the $200 range or higher. Would like something under $100 per night. Not expecting much. Shared bath ok.
Here’s my never fail way to get great room for rediculous prices…it never fails.
Go to Priceline.

Put in the dates you want and go to Choose your own Price

Use the map to find out where you will accept, when they find the hotel. Then choose a 3 star hotel (I’ve done it with 4).
Then put in a rediculous price like $50 a night.
If they don’t find you something. Put in $55. If that doesn’t work, put in 60, etc until you get something.
You’re never going to believe how wonderfully this works. I recently stayed in a hotel in NYC for $65 a night. None of my NYC friends believed me, but it was true, and the room was fabulous. I’ve done it in Providence, (I stayed in a 2 room suite at the Biltmore for $65 a night and a huge room at the Raddison for $60 a night) White Plains, NY, Ft. Lauderdale, and San Francisco. You will be amazed. Good luck!
