Staff was excellent. Very friendly and accomodating. Overall hotel condition was poor. Carpeting in room was old and dirty. Bed was sloped leaning to one side. Shower handle was coming off. Ice machines were broken. All of the vending machines were broken or sold out. Just overall not good...

The location was convenient for us, but felt a bit unsafe. Some good restaurants nearby. The beds were comfortable, but the room overall felt worn out. The bathroom was TINY and had a continuous fan (couldn't turn it off). We waited more than 15 minutes at check-in (7pm) for the desk clerk to show up (and this must be standard because there's a "thank you for your patience" sign posted). The shower gel was empty in the bathroom, and it was not replaced because they never came in to make our beds, etc. (and we were gone from 9AM to 5:30PM during the day). Appreciated the USB ports on the nightstand. Great view of Chicago skyline and peekaboo views of Lake Michigan!

clean and near downtown

The service

The hotel staff were super friendly and helpful. We stayed at the hotel the week that the nearby music conservatory at Northwestern University was holding auditions for prospective students, so lots of young musicians were staying at the hotel. The staff set up a system for the musicians to schedule times to use the conference room as a practice room which was a huge help for these musicians.

Very clean. Front desk made our stay very special and even gave us complimentary breakfast!

Front desk staff were friendly, and accommodating. I arrived about 90 minutes before check-in time, and the gentleman was able to oblige with an already cleaned room. The room was spotless, bed comfortable! I didn't attempt to have a meal or eat while here, so cannot comment on that.

Very conveniently located. Clean and quiet.

Excellent location. Thoughtful staff. Some issues with adequate hot water.

Clean easy parking and close to downtown. Peaceful.
