Extended Stay Midway

Extended Stay America Suites Chicago Midway focuses on providing essential utility for travelers who prioritize budget and function. Located in Bedford Park, this property sits just two miles south of Chicago Midway International Airport, positioning itself as a strategic option for those needing immediate access to the terminals without the higher price tag often associated with airport adjacent hotels. The atmosphere is straightforward and no nonsense, catering to guests who view their hotel primarily as a functional base of operations rather than a resort destination. It serves as a reliable solution for long term work assignments, relocation needs, or simple overnight layovers where cost effectiveness is the main concern.

Studio Living with Home Essentials

The accommodations are exclusively studio suites, designed to maximize efficiency within a compact footprint. Unlike standard hotel rooms that rely on the surrounding neighborhood for dining, these suites are built to support a self catering lifestyle. Every room features a fully equipped kitchen area that includes a full sized refrigerator, a stovetop, and a microwave. This setup allows guests to store groceries and prepare their own meals, which can result in significant savings over the course of a week or month.

While the design is simple and traditional, the focus is on practical necessities. The workspaces are adequate for setting up a laptop and managing emails, and the inclusion of free Wi-Fi ensures you stay connected to your office or family. It is worth noting that while the major appliances are present in every room, smaller items like cooking utensils, pots, and dishes are often kept at the front desk. Guests can request a “kitchen kit” upon arrival to fully stock their cabinets for the duration of their visit.

Property Amenities for the Independent Traveler

The on site facilities are tailored to support guests who are managing their own schedules. A standout feature for those traveling by car is the complimentary parking. In a city where parking fees can be exorbitant, having a free place to leave your vehicle adds substantial value to the daily rate.

For daily routines, the property offers a grab and go breakfast. This is not a sit down hot meal but rather a quick station offering coffee, granola bars, muffins, and hot cereal, designed to get you out the door efficiently. A 24 hour coin operated laundry facility is available on the premises, ensuring that fresh clothes are always accessible without the need for expensive dry cleaning services or off site laundromats. This is particularly beneficial for construction crews or medical professionals on rotation who need to maintain their uniforms on a consistent basis.

Location and Logistics

Bedford Park is a commercially dense village known for its industrial prowess and proximity to transportation hubs. While the immediate surroundings are not geared toward pedestrian tourism, the location excels in logistics. You are minutes away from the Midway Airport terminals, making early morning departures stress free.

For leisure or dining, the area offers several chain restaurants and local fast food staples within a short drive. If you need to head into downtown Chicago, the nearby Orange Line rail stations can connect you to the Loop in approximately thirty minutes, allowing you to visit major attractions like the Willis Tower or Millennium Park while keeping your accommodation costs low.
