Are you comfortable going to see a traveling provider near the airport(s), or do you prefer downtown?  

my preference is near the airport..downtown is a nightmare traffic and parking wise..the valet factor means nothing..they have been around long enough to know what's up..when half your clients stay for a little over an hour..it is not hard to figure out..

Are you comfortable going to see a traveling provider near the airport(s), or do you prefer downtown?  
   
 Also, are hotels that only offer valet unappealing due to the discretion factor?  
   
 

I think those that live or work in the burbs, as well as some city dwellers, prefer the burbs because traffic outside downtown is often time better.  Not always, but often.  Whereas, those in the downtown area can easily hop in cab to get to the hotel.

The airport hotels. They are used to folks coming and going at all hours so IMHO easier for the ladies to come and go UTR. Also more convenient for me as I travel in and out of Chicago. As far as the cost of parking, I usually give the lady a little extra to help - small price for my convenience.

For myself, I an equidistant from O'hare, Oak Brook, And ST.
I like all those areas, especially ST.
It also depends where I'm working, since my work is all over the region  
DT is great bc there is so much to do before and after.

I thought I knew all the lingo but that's a new one on me, lol.

Thank you everyone, I appreciate it. :-

But yes it was to be DT or Downtown  

According to stats that I've seen, 28% of Chicago households don't own cars.  (Many white collar professionals who work in the Loop fall into this category.)  Trying to quantify what percentage of those people see providers is hard to quantify but it is something that many providers in Chicago take into account.  (i.e. Incalls are near public trans or within an easy cab ride of the Loop.)

I don't usually drive out to the airport to visit with people anymore. It's just too much of a PITA, especially since I have to set up time on the weekends to make it happen and then try to time it, taking into account that there may or may not be gridlock traffic all the way to ORD.

...as you can see in the answers given so best to split a little time in downtown AND a part of the suburbs (or 2). O'Hare/Schaumburg, Downtown, Oak Brook/Lombard/Downer's Grove etc.

I Travel to see a Former Provider that's still an ATF of mine. This Lady lived in my state for over 15 years. She was the only one I was seeing. Then she decided to move out of state because things got slow here. I've travelled a number of times to see her. The drive is about 900 miles each way. She's out of the Business now and doesn't even work in her state. She's worth the drive. She's still Great after all these years. Yeah she's older now, but has the same Awesome Performance and Attitude since the first day I met her. In fact I'm going to drive and see her in a few weeks. Man, I can't wait to see her.

Since the city is to far of a drive and going to OHare traffic isn't always the best. I prefer Oakbrook/Lombard, as I'm about 75 miles Southwest if the City and getting to the burbs is not that bad drive wise.

so I have a strong preference for Downtown/Near North.  I always appreciate ladies spending at least one day of their visits in those areas.  I've thought about renting a car to go see someone, but I've never gotten off my rear end and done it.

My personal preference is O'Hare because no need to deal with crazy downtown traffic and ridiculous parkings and it takes a hell to get into DT and overall experience is pain in ass.
