I love the location, I did a Birthday stay-cation in my City and I just love downtown Chicago. The Hotel has a lot of restaurants and bars close by

The only thing I didn’t like was mobile orders can’t come to your room door to drop off food

Good location, spacious room, comfortable bed

Rooms a little outdated and bathroom was dark and a little rundown. There’s no reception desk. You check in at the bar. Not one employee was friendly at check-in, check-out, or as we came and went. It was so strange! It felt like a budget hotel with the lack of staffing and care. No one seemed to care who came and went and while that may be a personality thing (shared by all staff), it’s also a safety concern. There is no doorman, and there were several times we walked in or out without ever even seeing a person. You need a key to access the elevator, but that is easily worked around. Coffee pods and tea were never replenished once we used them the first day, so we had to go buy our own.

Spacious room, spacious bathroom, comfy setup, and the living area was neat. I liked the big mirror, and the small kitchen area

The location of this hotel is simply perfect for exploring Chicago. Just off the Magnificent Mile, right in the heart of downtown but just far enough up a quite street to be peaceful.

We booked a suite which was spacious, clean and comfortable. It had the facilities you expect, it was just a little tired and looked out on a boarded up building. The view would have been better if we have been on a higher floor, we were on the 7th.
