Sonder the Burnham Apartments Loop

Pleasant enough place to stay, but there's never any staff on site and the walls are so thin and aircon/fridge so loud, you'll need earplugs to sleep. Close to a 7-eleven and some eateries, plus the Blue Line to O'Hare is just around the corner and downtown is walkable.

Nicely appointed big room with good kitchen and clothes washer/dryer Comfy bed Problem is if anyone talks any where approaching loud and for some reason mobile phone conversations often fit this description - you join the conversation TV from next door may as well be in your room Not pleasant

I stayed at the Sonder overnight between two long-distance trains. If you are traveling through Union Station, this is a perfect option. It’s basically across the street from the station, and it was also good for some low-intensity exploring in the area. The room was clean, comfortable, and since I was between train trips I really appreciated the opportunity to do laundry in my unit. I was skeptical at first of the app-driven check-in and check-out. There are no employees at the location, although I assume if something goes wrong they can send someone. But it all worked without a hitch, and I’m sold on the concept now.

Entirely automated check in and check out process - Pretty location and nice room, but felt a bit stressed knowing I could get potentially locked out if I forgot the code or if my phond died. Would have preferred at least one on-site person

So great. Amazing affordable option.
