What you get
Cherry Cola is a four star property on Hobart Avenue Southeast, and the listed facilities point to a whole house rather than a hotel room. You get a kitchen with an oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, a refrigerator and a toaster, plus a washing machine, an iron and board, and a hairdryer. There is a bath and a bathroom, air conditioning, a fireplace, a desk, a TV and free wifi. Outside there is a garden and a patio, and parking is free and on site. Pets are allowed, and the place is non smoking. Where the list is thin is in anything a staffed hotel would add: no restaurant, no bar, no gym, no reception, and only one photograph on file.
For someone staying at Cherry Cola, that means self catering and space rather than service. You cook, you park, you keep the group together, and you come and go from a residential street in Grant Park. The King Memorial rail stop is labelled 20 min, and the trail is 0.6 mi to trail, so both are reachable without a car. Cherry Cola suits groups, families and anyone travelling with a pet who wants a kitchen and free parking, and it suits a longer stay better than one night. It does not suit anyone who wants a front desk, room service or a lobby, because none of that is here.

Where it puts you
These hotels sit in Grant Park, on the southeast side of the city, and the neighbourhood is the reason to pick them. The zoo, the Cyclorama and the best Sunday farmers market in the city are here. Families end up here and stay put. The BeltLine is close at hand, with the trail 0.6 mi to trail, so you can walk or ride the loop rather than drive it.
For getting around, King Memorial, 20 min puts you on rail without needing a car for every trip. Come here if you want a residential pocket with real draws and a trail on the doorstep. Look elsewhere if you want downtown at street level or a quick weekend of bar hopping, because this is a slower, family-shaped part of town.
Booking it
Book Cherry Cola directly if you want the whole house, because there is no front desk to fall back on. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, and you book them through app.impt.io. Every confirmed booking removes one tonne of CO2, at no extra cost to you. Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.
