The room was clean and staff was very helpful and nice. Breakfast was better than most similarly priced hotel breakfasts but not as good as it looked in pictures. Really great location with lots of food and transit nearby and walking distance from the loop.

Cold room with loud heater that went on and off intermittently all night. I had an accessible room with a leaky shower. My mobility issues are fine enough that i was able to use it but it was not comfortable. I feel it would be very challenging for someone who uses a wheelchair. I went downstairs and asked to borrow a regular chair for sitting (there wasn’t one in the room) and was told no. It was fine, just not terribly comfortable. The seating area for breakfast was very nice!

Check in was easy, breakfast was good and fresh! Beds were comfy but the room was on the smaller side. The location was perfect to all things downtown. Our only negative was that the TV stopped working or second day there. We told them immediately and they didn't have anyone come look at it. They did offer us another room, but that would have been to much of a hassle. All in all it was a great stay and we would definitely stay here again.

The staff was rude, water pressure was in and out, it was like staying in a hostel, the rooms where very small and the doors didn’t have separate insulation on the bottoms so it was a space and you could hear someone 3 doors down in the room, the slams of the doors are very bad the sound of people in the hallways. This is not a place to sleep or relax! I’m so disappointed I paid for 7 nights. What a rip off , the heater didn’t even work right. Everything was bad! Never again!

The Hotel Cass was very nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was conveniently located to many of the main things to do in downtown Chicago. The breakfast area was very crowded, and the food, although not terrible, was repetitive. The room was perfect for our family of four.
