Close to Children’s Hospital, nice stay
The Drake was great! The employees were all super friendly and the facility was nice. We were there from out of town for an appointment at Lurie Children’s Hospital and it was a great location. Near Watertower Place and obviously all the shopping on Michigan Ave. there were gluten free muffin options in the coffee shop which was great for my son and I. We would definitely go back!
