Nice and convenient location but to walk from the parking garage to the hotel after hours was a little unsettling. Valet would be my choice next time but rather expensive.

I arrived early for check-in and my room was ready. I did not have to pay an early fee. Please note the $100 deposit fee at check-in. I was told ahead of time that I needed to request housekeeping. Even though I requested our room to be cleaned by 10:30 am, the room was not cleaned at all. There is a coffee machine on the 2nd floor. I do not recommend getting hot water from there. The hot water tasted so weird and disgusting. Overall, a good hotel for a short stay. Friendly staff that helps with check-in and check-out.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Chicago offered lots to do and great eats. Our hotel was central to many things like the river walk and bars. I highly recommend this hotel because it was clean, easily accessible to entertainment and food. We will visit again!

Would give it five stars except for two things: 1) I paid for an upgrade to get early check in but when I arrived one hour after my check in time, they told me the room was not ready. I had to tell them I paid for early check in and then I was able to get a room immediately. They should have known without me telling them. 2. The room was very cold. There was a thermostat but although the fan was blowing, it was cold air and the room never warmed up. I had to get extra blankets to sleep with. On the positive side, the room and entire hotel was very clean. The free water was fantastic. And most impressive was the view directly down the Chicago River looking west. And there is no better location in all of Chicago.

The hotel is very well located, and the staff is very friendly and responsive. The room was small but clean with a Nespresso machine, and there are only 2 elevators for over 30 floors--mostly a problem at peak times. Overall a good value.
