This is a good hotel, great service from hotel desk in general. Friendly service at the hotel restaurant and bar. The room cleaning was very good and thorough. Location was fine and pretty close to most sightseeing sites. The room nice, and installations high quality. The bellboys were really friendly and showed high customer care - excellent service! All in all a nice hotel in Chicago!

Great hotel. I enjoyed dinner at the hotel restaurant. The room was comfortable. I loved having coffee in the room in the morning. I came for the AIDS walk and the hotel’s location was perfect.

Very good experience at this hotel. Excellent location, attentive and friendly staff, room was clean. Bed and pillows were extremely comfortable.
Only complaint was the bathroom - very little counter space (or anywhere to store toiletries) and the sliding barn door did little for privacy.
Otherwise, very happy with our stay and would stay here again.

Very clean and comfortable room. Elevators are a little slow and on the small side. I was given a $16 coupon for a meal in the restaurant that opens from the hotel’s lobby. It was raining hard the second day of my stay and the front desk was happy to lend me one of their umbrellas. Also, as I had food poisoning the night before departure, I asked if my checkout time could be moved later. They gave me an extra hour. Only thing that could have been better is if the shower head wouldn’t start leaking water what seemed like once an hour while I was trying to sleep.

The hotel is well-maintained and provides tremendous service before check-in with luggage service and an early check-in not to mention complimentary water provided always.
The room was clean and came with a fridge to keep drinks cool. The closet had a decent amount of space for a weekend trip. The bathroom was clean and equipped with M&G products.
The fitness center is clean and has amenities such as water and lavender-infused cooled towels. The only complaint was the noise from Michigan Ave, mainly at night, making it difficult to remain asleep.

I found that while the staff were polite and friendly, they did little to accommodate requests that are very commonly granted at other hotels of this class. The rooms are also very compact.

Loved the hotel. Location perfect for our visit to Chicago. Most of the staff was fabulous. One doorman told us we could not order and Uber to pick us up at the hotel which was wrong! Would definitely come back.
