need inexpensive hotel close to downtown

June 21 or 22 through June 25

There will be four of us, but we only need one hotel room. We would rather spend our money somewhere else beside the hotel, so we are looking for something cheap yet close to downtown.

We will have a car, but would rather not have to drive it into downtown on the weekend, as I can imagine parking will be horrible. Is there a suburb with a train that would take us into downtown?

www.midwayhotelcenter.com - from there you can take the CTA orange line train to/from downtown.

I assume you%26#39;re driving in from MN. Also consider hotels in Evanston, Highland Park, and Deerfield, IL. From those towns - metrarail.com - will get you downtown. Evanston is the closest suburb to downtown. You can also take the CTA purple and red line train from Evanston to/from downtown. Visit transitchicago.com for details.
