    Default Does Long-Term Residence in a Hotel Give You Rights as a Tenant

    An Illinois resident has been living in a hotel for eight months, and has fallen behind on his payments. The hotel wants him out immediately, but he believes he has rights as a tenant. What are his rights to being given a pay or quit notice, and being evicted, as opposed to being locked out of his room?

    Default Re: Does Long-Term Residence in a Hotel Give You Rights as a Tenant

    If the tenant has been paying weekly or monthly rent, the tenant may have rights as a tenant as a result of those periodic payments. For example, Chicago has an ordinance that gives protection to long-term residents (>31 days in residence) of a hotel or motel who pays rent on a month-by-month basis. However, when a hotel or motel charges by the day, Illinois does not appear to provide any special protection based upon long-term residence.
