Its proximity to Oakwood Beach, the Museum of Science and Industry, and Guaranteed Rate Field also makes it a practical choice for guests combining campus visits with sightseeing or a ballgame.
Travel tips
Having a car or ride-share is recommended since nearby attractions like the Museum of Science and Industry and Guaranteed Rate Field are a few miles away rather than walkable. Free parking on-site removes a common city-stay hassle, so driving guests can plan without worrying about street parking near the university. Building in time for the roughly 2.3-mile trip to the museum or the 2.9-mile trip to the ballpark is worthwhile if catching a specific show time or game start.
