Willis was the most helpful and kind person we met on our trip. He made sure we knew where to go and checked in later with us.

This location was very convenient. Many locations were in walking distance. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean. The pool was closed for renovations when I visited, but I would definitely stay here again the next time I visit Chicago.

Booked this specifically for the rooftop with city views, when I got there I was told it was closed it would have been nice to know that before booking I would have chosen another hotel. Bed was comfy and close to a lot of stuff in the city. Room was spacious.

Wallace, the concierge was very friendly and helpful. He called a cab for us when the app wasn't cooperating and we needed help. The rooftop viewing area is beautiful as is the view from the pool. The restaurant staff was friendly and helpful and drinks and dessert were yummy! My only complaint about the hotel is that the hallways and our room smelled musky, we had to go by air freshener to help manage the smell.

We got in very early on our check in day and Jordan gave us a room right away and didn’t charge us extra. Every employee we encountered was very friendly and helpful. The food at the restaurant was good and pool area was nice. The rooms comfortable and clean and the hotel is in a great location. We come to Chicago often and this is a first for this location but it will be our go to from now on.

The rooftop deck and pool were closed, but the gym (small as it was) was open. The gym was ok. Nice set of weights, a few treadmills and an elliptical. One exercise bike. But the property was nice, less expensive than most other hotels in the area, but still near everything. The staff were really wonderful. The front desk guy got me a fridge after the first night and also gave me a later checkout. Nice lounge area and attached restaurant. Room was very nice. Clean, good view, quiet. You do have to go outside to get the elevators to the rooms, but that’s ok. It’s only for a few seconds and it’s in a covered area. Overall, a great stay. I would recommend to anyone who wants to be near the action but still save a little money.
