Has anyone out there stayed at the Sleep Inn about a mile from the base? Or, has anyone heard good or bad about the Sleep Inn? Any info would be appreciated, most all the hotels are basically booked for the PIR on 10 Nov.

Then it was clean fairly quiet place real near the base -- good staff -- no problems -- no amenities like pool or such. About 1.5 miles from the gate and METRA but you might not want to walk the two miles, especially if the weather turns bad.
But if you do walk there give it extra time, no sidewalks most of the way.
The restaurant across the big road had a good rep back then.
Lots of A-School visitors as well as PIR.
Lots better than the other nearby cheapo places then.
Definitely can recommend - had a real good PIR staying there.
But was 3.5 years back.
I'd stay there again no problem.
