Im thinking about taking a road trip to come see the cubbies.
Sept 11.th against the Reds.
Hotels.com says the "heart o chicago" motel is 99.00 a night. Is this a decent place to stay? in a decent area? It says its 3 miles from Wrigley...so that would be cool.
Any suggestions are appreciated....but I dont want to spend 200.00 a night or anything like that.
thanks in advance.

well everything else I saw on "hotels.com" was pretty expensive. Im not too concerned with distance. we can take the bus to wrigley and walk around after the game and get a taxi if need be.
we will only be there two nights....but a hundred a night is really all I want to spend.
Ill keep looking and see what else I can find

Not sure their rates, but this could be fun:

I'll ask one of my employees if she has any suggestions.
Ridge and Peterson is a bit far, and a cab from Wrigley to there could run $15 fwiw.

It's a shame, in the winter me and my lady booked a room downtown overlooking the Magnificent Mile. We only paid 150. I was going to recommend that place but it's now around 350, I'm guessing due to the summer vacation months.
I would jus' stick with the place you provided. That area sounds like a good neighborhood and it's only 100 bux a night like you said. You're coming to Chicago for the sights and attractions not for a fancy place to rest your head. Cab fare from there to Wrigley shouldn't be a problem - it's fairly close and from there, there are a lot of bars and restaurants you could visit. Good Luck.

Area around Sox Park is lame, Wrigleyville is way more fun.
Ridge and Peterson is fine, I think there is even a White Castle over there. But I'm just saying if you see something a bit more and it's a little close I'd go for it, because a cab will be at least $10.
Wrigley is at Addison/Clark/Sheffield. Maybe also see what's available on Clark up by Andersonville. There are some cool restaurants around there.
If you pull the trigga let me know, maybe we can meet up a for beer.

Maybe even something on Lincoln Av. I'm blanking out, as a former DePaul student all I remember of Lincoln Av. is lights and blurrr.
Your always within walking distance in these areas. I hate cabs and if its a nice day there is nothin quite like walkin' the streets of chicago. Best of luck in your search. Go Sox!
