This is one of my favorite hotels in Chicago and it's the first one I check when I am heading to the city. My suite was comfortable and I enjoyed my stay. One tiny complaint is that the in-room coffee seems to have been downgraded. There used to be a fresh pour over option in every room, but on this stay my room strangely had one of those small tea bag style coffee packets you usually see at far less expensive hotels and it didn't work with the room's pour over basket.

Do not book this hotel if you want to sleep at all. 1:30am and the thumping loud music from the club 3 floors above us is vibrating the entire room. We called down and there are no rooms to move us to so we are literally stuck here, awake until the club closes. What a waste of money. The hotel is also very dark with no real lobby. Sketchy street. Stay anywhere else and it will be an upgrade.

The hotel is exceptional but make sure you’re in by 10:00 pm. The area around the hotel entrance becomes very uncomfortable after dark. They really should have security out front.

For the price I paid I was disappointed. Bums with their pants down at the entrance of the building - front desk laughed and said “that’s city life”. At the entrance of my room were ceiling tiles; all yellow and dirty, you could see the insulation seeping through. Shower floor was not cleaned or they need to just regrout. The location is next to the train so sleeping was not ideal.
