Q. I am looking to stay at a hotel in Chicago NEAREST to their navy base in great lakes. I am trying to visit my boyfriend for when he graduates and I'd like the cheapest or nearest place possible. And if I do decide to stay there, is Chicago a good city to get my hotel, or is there a city closer?
A. I don't think you're ready for the BIG CITY. The naval base is in North Chicago. It is not a part of the city of Chicago. In fact it is about 37 miles from downtown Chicago. Below are some hotels near the training center:

Are there any hotels Chicago that allow under-21 guests?
Q. I'm a 20 year old college student visiting Chicago this Saturday. I had been planning on getting a hotel room until it occurred to me that some hotels require you to be 21 to check in. Are there any hotels in Chicago that only require me to be 18 to check in?
A. Here's the thing...
Pretty much every hotel downtown has a minibar in the room, so they can't rent the room to somebody under 21 (because of the beer and stuff). So what you need to do is call around to the big name hotels like Holiday Inn or the Hapton Inn and check on their policy before you book the room. Some hotels may allow a parent to sign for the room, some may allow you to rent the room if they remove the minibar...just don't go book the room online and try to sneak in because they'll ask you for an ID and when they see that you're not 21 you could be without a room, and you don't want to do that because you'll end up paying a walk in rate, which is always high.
Look at the hotels near the airports, they're always about $50-$100 cheaper per night, you can take the elevated trains to downtown for $2 each way, and you're more likely to find a hotel that will let you rent a room. You can always come back to answers and ask for directions from the el's stop to the schools you're looking at.
