My only concern would be thermostat. The heat wasn’t regulating. Once I entered the room it was cool then I turned on the heat. Then it became extremely hot. Otherwise it was a good stay thank you.

The room was very nice but also VERY small! No walk way to even get to the bathroom area. Also, house keeping came to bring towels but not make up the bed the 2nd night.

Nice hotel, friendly staff, great location. We stayed 2 nights. Room was small and cramped for 3 adults. The view outside our window was 3 brick walls to an ac corridor and other room windows. Which was very disappointing for a first trip to Chicago and we couldn’t look out the window. Housekeeping skipped our room on day 2 so we had to get fresh towels from reception.

We stayed in February during winter, and the windows let freezing air enter the room. One mattress was uncomfortable and made a lot of noise from the springs with the slightest change of position On our last day, we found a small cockroach in the bathroom.
