    Anyone from Chicago area?

    I'm flying out from Arizona to go see my Bears take on the Saints. However, I need to book a hotel in the $99-125 range and staying from 1/19 and checking out 1/22. What's the best hotel for the area. I heard Rush street is really good for nightlife.

    I think I've narrowed it down to these choices



    Pros
    -Cheap $99 per night
    -2 beds
    -Seems like its in the middle of everything

    Cons
    -no exercise room
    -picture doesn't look too inviting



    Pros
    -Looks really nice from pictures

    Cons
    -Costs about $35 more a night
    -1 king bed



    -Cheap like the 1st one

    Rush Street is in the Loop, nice little area at night. That's about all of the input I can give you as far as where to stay in the Chi. I was only there for a short time going to school, and I stayed around State Street. Lots of fun!

        No. The suburbs are way to spread out. If you're visiting then you probably should stay on Rush. If you go to the 'burbs, you're going to be bored out of your mind.

        Stay on Rush. You'll also be able to hit Division Street and just about anything else you want with an easy cab ride.

          Been here all my life and never had the urge to go on Rush, not my type of scene.

          Only time me and boys wanted to go towards the party scene is to rob people!!!

            Co-sign... suburbs are really boring. City has bad traffic but then again your only visiting.

                  There are bars and nightclubs all around that area. You should go north of state street(which is the street you'll be next to) and you'll run into all sorts of spots.

                      Just dont make the mistake of walking around in the neighborhoods with the "rainbow flags", Unless you WANT to be there.

                          I wanted to state that earlier but some might be offended.

                          Even still, they're all over downtown in disguise.

                            Just dont go too north of the city. You may not come out with your male virginity still intact.

                              The bars/nightclubs in the downtown area are ok. BUT I would probably recommend the bars/nightclubs in the Wrigleyville area. The Wrigleyville area is on the northside where Wrigley Field is at. They have a wide varity of bars/nightclubs from Reggie clubs to 'just your average' sportsbar and gill.
