The mattress has plastic cover with it under its bed sheet instead of fabric/cotton mattress cover/protector/pad. Not sure if it was original mattress moving package… Not comfortable at all. Didn’t sleep well! Called Front Desk, but no one followed up…

Was a great and cute little hotel in a historic building. Loved the back alley entrance for uber and taxis drops offs. Room had a great view and staff was great. Bed was very comfortable and good pillows. Only 2 complaints: First, the honking outside on the street was excessive. Not 2 minutes would go by without a horn or siren and it was very clear in the room we had on the 17th floor. Second, the mini bar prices were pretty high, so we ended up just buying from the walgreens that is a 5 minute walk away.

Everything is perfect except for the staff at the front desk. We checked in and no one greeted us. Staff at the front desk always just chatting and does not greet any customers walking in. We observed this the entire 7 days of stay and this is not an isolated situation. Although I really loved the staff at the ALK and Ms. Betty.

Chicago for wedding

The hotel has just been remodeled and was pristine. It has a very friendly restaurant and bar in the lobby, very convenient. The location is perfect if you enjoy walking to places...the park(across the street), river, navy pier and lake are all 20 mins away. If you enjoy shopping, Michigan Ave has all the stores within walking distance also. I highly recommend it.
