If you're connecting on the weekends, the ORD Hilton is often really cheap and it's connected to the airport. I've seen it go for the AAA rate of $89. I'd spend that for four hours in a bed and a real shower. Some of the surrounding hotels with shuttles can be even cheaper (Hilton Rosemont: $71 for example).
