Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has a stunning glass-roofed atrium space that serves as a breakfast room in the morning and cocktail lounge in the evening. The rooms could use a little updating and were not ready for check on my arrival. The service was accommodating to our special needs but sometimes lacked immediate responses. The location is prime, offering practical access to attractions like Magnificent Mile and Navy Pier. The dining experience was mostly good but needed more variety. Overall, a decent choice for a stay.
The hotel had a mix of positives like a great location within walking distance to many attractions and friendly service, but there were some drawbacks like cleanliness issues and a disappointing dining experience.
The hotel has spacious and clean rooms, although there was one tiny and awful room on each floor that felt out of place compared to the rest. The rooms could use some updating. On the upside, the location is perfect for exploring the city with convenient access to local attractions and dining options.
The hotel feels more like having a studio apartment, with rooms that are a bit dated and tight in certain areas. The service was a mix of the best and less friendly encounters, while the location offers the convenience of being close to many attractions in Chicago. The dining experience provided a variety of choices but could use some improvement in consistency. Overall, a decent option for a stay in the city.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and some drawbacks. The glass-roofed atrium added to the charm, but I encountered issues with the beds' comfort, lack of outlets for the microwave, and some leftover garbage behind the dresser. The exceptional service and convenient location made up for these shortcomings, offering a pleasant overall experience.
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of Chicago, just a few blocks from Magnificent Mile, offering a convenient and comfortable stay. The rooms, although clean, are on the smaller side, but perfect to unwind after a busy day exploring the city. The service is positive overall, with a welcoming attitude, though lacking a bit of genuine friendliness. The location receives top marks for its proximity to key city attractions and various dining options. The dining experience is convenient with multiple choices available. Facilities are well-kept, ensuring a pleasant stay at a reasonable rate.
