tl;dr the thread replies, but I live near Chicago and go all the time. Look for a small hotel (non-chain name) on the northern east side, a google maps search of the suburb names will speed your search along. Do NOT go on the South side or west side EVER , have fun chi is an amazing city

fixed ^^.

and how the hell does google searching the suburbs help a person that's not in the suburbs? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There's plenty of nice neighborhoods on the southside. Too many wanky drunkass douchebags on the north

Brookfield is not free. LP is free, and would be in walking distance to her. cubs fans can afford the internet (zing!). and yes, if you go south enough things start to get better. but they get much worse before they get better. and maybe there are more "wanky drunkass douchebags" on the north, but to be fair, we are not offing ourselves in record numbers across the country.. unlike the South and West side which have officially teamed up to make Chicago the murder capital of America

15 miles is way to far to go for public transit, you could stay in a suburb and take a train into the city for sure. It kind of depends on what area of chicago the conference is . downtown you are prolly around 200 a night after everything. parking is a pain as well unless you flew in

this^^ x10

our last mayor was corrupt as fawk. all parking meters street parking was sold to a private company, and unless you find a good "all day" parking deal, the garages are way to over priced.

Trains, Buses, and Taxis will be your best friends in the area.

Gas = 4.17
Cigs = 12.00

When I was internetting our trip up to chicago last time I went, evvvvery site was giving me hotels INSIDE chicago, and mostly downtown near Michigan st. Used google maps, zoomed into to Chicago until the burbs round it had names visible and started searching for hotels in the burbs, found a badass deal in like 5 minutes.

lol what? So since you pull for the socks you'ld tell people you know to hang out on the Southside when they visit? Can't tell if stupid or stupid...

Back when I was making great decisions in life and driving to chicago to pick up white girl we had to stop on the REAL part of the South Side.. wasnt as scared of being around legit bangers as I was sure I'd be robbed and shot one of these times
