Kinda pricey, pretty fun, and I might stay at the hotel again if I got a better rate.
Pros:

The staff and location were excellent. I liked being in such a hub of the city.

Cons:

The barn door for the bathroom felt very wrong and not private at all. Also, there was an electric plug on the wall behind said door. Entirely silly and pointless.

We were in Chicago to attend a nephews wedding and thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Pros:

The location was excellent We did not breakfast at the Property however good breakfast of bacon and eggs was available close by. The beds were quite comfortable Would like to stay here again.

Cons:

Drinking water. It was a hassle to refill the bottles. Elevators were less than required and delays occurred

Pros:

Centralissimo e molto comodo per muoversi a piedi nella zona di passeggio e shopping. D’altra parte, il ‘magnificent mile’ contiene gli stessi negozi di ogni altra parte del mondo ricco.

Cons:

Per 400 dollari a notte la colazione si poteva includere. Invece era cara e a menu come per il pranzo. Le camere (due, dopo la prima notte ho chiesto un cambio per il rumore dello sbocco dei condizionatori sul tetto del fabbricato accanto) erano piacevoli e moderne ma non specialmente accoglienti. La seconda, una suite, era ampia e ben arredata ma, di nuovo, non particolarmente ‘cozy’.

Sempre in rapporto al prezzo, lo staff era giovane e cortese ma per la cifra qualche attenzione in piú ci poteva stare.
Ottimi i bagni, pulitissimi e forniti di tutto.

A Chicago tutto costa dal doppio al triplo, quindi consideriamolo un Hotel da $150/notte e i conti tornano abbastanza.

Relajante, cómoda y asequible
Pros:

Ubicación, estaba en el centro. Estábamos en la planta 17, era silencioso y tranquilo. El museo también fue muy interesante. El baño estaba limpio y equipado con todo lo necesario. Lo recomiendo a todos los que me preguntan por hoteles en esta Ciudad.

Cons:

Todo estaba a mi gusto. No me gusta que me cobren 100$ de fianza y que después de 9 días no me lo hayan devuelto, creo que es algo que deberían de solucionar.

Nice hotel, valet is HORRIBLE and not worth $80.
Pros:

The hotel was clean and I enjoyed my stay up until I tried to request my vehicle from valet.

Cons:

The property is great, but valet needs much better service. I was told to call ahead 30 minutes to request my vehicle, it also said the same thing on the ticket. I did as instructed, and was told it would be ready in 10 minutes. I went right down and checked out. My vehicle was not ready and I waited an additional 40 minutes. When I went to ask the person working the valet and he said that I would only get my vehicle once I came down and gave him my ticket. I was EXTREMELY frustrated because the lobby was crowded and there was a crew moving artwork in and out. When I tried to question the person working valet about the process, he was extremely rude and insisted that I made the mistake even though I was following instructions on n the ticket and what I was told by the valet the day before who parked my vehicle. The person working continued to make excuses and tried to justify the poor service. When I questioned the front desk about the situation and asked why I paid $80 for such poor service, she made excuses as well and referred me to speak with the parking attendant with whom I was having so much trouble with in the first place. Nonetheless, I will NOT be recommending this hotel to anyone!
