A lodging option in the heart of Chicago

Through March, and possibly further, Days Inn Chicago, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood has a screamin’ deal special offer–as low as $50 plus tax per night from Sunday to Thursday and $100 a night on the weekends. This is 50% of  the normal rate.

This particular Days Inn, a modernized 1920s hotel,  is a boutique version several notches above the Days Inn where I stayed in Clearfield, Pennsylvania. Plus, this particular Days Inn has  a unique history connected to Rock and Roll.

Several bands stayed here before fame and fortune hit. The guest list is impressive, for sure. Black Keys, Sheryl Crow, Smashing Pumpkins, and Foo Fighters, to name a few. Here’s a link to the page with the whole list —an eclectic mix that serves as a memory lane of sorts, as in, “Oh, yeah. I know them.”

A business class room

Along with its Rock and Roll connection (some groups do stay here still), The Days Inn, Chicago is worth considering for its walking distance proximity to several Chicago attractions: Wrigley Field, Lincoln Park Zoo, Kingston Mines-”Chicago’s oldest and largest real Blues club” and The Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum, among others.

When you’re not out and about enjoying Chicago’s bustle, the Days Inn offers: complimentary Wi-Fi, deluxe continental breakfast and access to Bally’s Total Fitness.

The breakfast room serves up waffles, fresh squeezed oj and more

To get the discounted rate, book the room by calling the hotel at 888-LPN-DAYS or 773-525-7010 ext. 0 and ask for the Youpon rate, code “LKQP.”

As an idea, give a stay in the hotel for a gift. Gift certificates are available.
