The gentleman named David who secured our luggage while we waited for the room to become available was very helpful and friendly. He even gave us each a bottle of water because we were so hot coming back from the Bears game. His customer service was much appreciated.

Paid extra for a room with a view of the lake. They tell us they over booked and moved us to another room and comped us with drink vouchers and neither of us drink. So I paid extra to stare at walls of other buildings. I would never use this hotel again after how they handled things. I didn’t get money back and got vouchers that didn’t get used. I booked in April and still got booted from my room. What’s the point of reserving early through them or any site!
