To be honest, I don't even know this property even offered a shuttle to ORD, as it is out of most airport shuttle radius.

There actually has public transportation to get to this place. If one is coming from ORD, take the blue line one stop to Rosemont, get on the PACE bus #606, it should only take 20 minutes to get there, but depends on the traffic on I-90. (Yes, this bus actually run express on I-90) This bus run approximately every 30 min, more frequent during rush hour, less frequent during weekends especially sunday.(every hour)

But I do agree since there are so many hotels (especially Hilton family) are much closer to ORD, OP definately make a mistake to use this as airport hotel.

I think OP had already mentioned it is the NH crew, and the problems with the shuttle because of that crew.
