Beats every Marriott property I've stayed at
I usually stay at Marriott properties but this hotel was exceptional. We had a corner room we gave us both the opportunity to be on concurrent phone calls.
Climate control and room amenities were all great at a reasonable price.

Great customer service. Cute museum hotel. Close to everything, walking distance to navy pier and shopping on Michigan Avenue. Only complaint, beds super low to the ground. Great stay, would stay again.
