Wrong, the blue line runs 24 hours and is a 5-10 walk. From Rosemont its about 30 mins to the loop.
You do not want to be anywhere near downtown in Chicago. You think IAH has bad traffic? I just went to an appointment on the south side. Took 3 hours to get there during rush hour. The way back was still and hour and a half and it wasn't rush hour. Seriously, if you can't find something to do in 30 hours with a bowling alley, movie theater, numerous restaurants and the train within a 10 minute walk and the shuttle ride is only 10 minutes to the airport, you will never be pleased.
I forgot to mention. Ord is also a 4am bar town. Even if you get in late you will find a place that's open. The kitchen might be closed but you can always find a drink.
