Our receptionists on arrival and departure were exceptional. Amazingly friendly and helpful
The rooms are quite outdated, which the pictured really don’t show and is therefore a bit of a mislead. Chipped furniture an old aircon that’s all flaked etc
Also a massive shoutout to our waiter in the restaurant. We had lunch and he was THE BEST! Thank you so much

I got the room for $118, so you can't complain much but have seen this location at more than double that rate which it is not worth it compared to others I have stayed at in Chicago. Room was run down and the heating/cooling didn't work. room stayed at 70 which is fine but if it was a hot or cold day, it would have been miserable.

This hotel worked for our short stay in Chicago. Not a bad option if you need to stay downtown but dont want the downtown hotel prices.
