Convenient for concerts at Toyota Park
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/24/08
I agree with the crackhead comment. I had the hot tub room, not bad, except the hot water dripped out SO slowly. Room was clean, but musty smelling, floor was really bumpy and uneven. Every lil' 100,000 mile problem you could have was there. (Several light bulbs out, missing knobs on this and that, cracked mirrors and tile, exposed wiring, patched up holes of all shapes and sizes in the drywall, drink-rings on the wooden furniture, the 2 chairs by the table were SHOT.) The windows in this room appeared to be homemade, with one pane of VERY thin, cheap glass. On the plus side, the room was very spacious, and Anna was very nice, and took great care of us. However, I did in fact find a crack pipe hidden on the window sill. But if you're looking to get bombed at a show at Toyota Park and want to stay the night without driving, you can't beat Clayton's. The walk from Toyota Park back to Clayton's is literally about 2 city blocks in length, and there is a liquor store right in between that stays open late when big shows are in town. I took the stereo out of my car and left it at home, and I'd recommend others to do the same, based on the looks of the neighborhood. Prices DO go up on nights of concerts, but much to my surprise, rooms do not fill up too quickly. There is typically still vacancy even hours after the show ends. They do no take reservations, so plan accordingly!! Hope this helps!!
