Pros:

We always stay at this hotel when visiting our granddaughter who works in Chicago.
Best night sleep I’ve had in a long time. Very comfortable beds & very quiet rooms. Nice bathroom & shower. Love the Nespresso coffee machine. And finally a beautiful view of the river & city.

Pros:

The water purifier was coming out extremely slow on our floor, and the next day no water was coming out at all. We had to go to another floor to refill. Also, we left for the day and had no sign on our door for do not disturb. Upon our return, there was a “out and about” sign on our door handle on the outside we had not placed, and our room hadn’t been serviced/towels replaced/beds made.

I was supposed to get my room key at 4:00. I didn't get it until 5:20. I wanted to see the river from my room, and that's what I asked for, but it wasn't. It was a crappy room.

Pros:

The property is nice, there is an onsite restaurant which is convenient, I didn’t try it because we already had reservations elsewhere, each night of our stay. It’s a bit of a maze getting from the parking to the room, but in my experience with downtown hotels, they are all like this. You do get in/out privileges for parking which is nice, and the parking isn’t as expensive as I’ve paid in the past. Tv was malfunctioning during our stay which was upsetting for my husband. Breakfast and coffee onsite but plenty of coffee shops nearby less than 5 minute walk. I would recommend traveling with friends or companion for safety reasons. Rooms are spacious, no microwave inside the room.

Pros:

Everything was good except the shower was not ready for us. The shower head was the kind that you could adjust at different levels and it was pretty much stripped and you had to hold it or it would fall. They offered to come and fix it but we declined. Also we did not housekeeping service the second and last day of our stay which meant we had dirty coffee cups and glasses as well as towels. We had a sign up that said Out and About thinking they would come while we were gone but that didn’t happen . The staff was extremely pleasant and the facility was clean.
