Positives: Bed was super comfy and the staff was lovely. Close to Northerly Island. Next to Paris baguette. Negatives: Thin, old (really old) towels. No handheld shower. Narrow bathroom. Super-thin toilet paper. Hotel and rooms are showing their age. Rooms need fresh paint.

Comfortable Stay for Business Trip

My stay was pretty average, it was what I needed for my business trip. I really enjoyed the bakery right next door as well as the Asian restaurant. Both were close and very good. I had no issues with my stay and everyone was very nice. They offer bag checks as well if you’re in town for a conference and want to leave your bags if your room isn’t ready yet.

The property is in a decently central location on South Michigan Avenue and there is easy access to red line trains within a block. Was good for the price. Only thing I didn’t like was that when I used the shower the lip of the shower was not tall at all so I got water all over the bathroom floor.

The front desk staff was great. That was the only upside. We checked in and our kids found drug paraphernalia in the safe. We were given a different room. This one had issues; one of the tvs had no sound, we called 4 times for extra pillows before going and getting them ourselves, one of the ac units was incredibly loud. When we brought down the things we had found they refunded our parking but told us they couldn’t do anything about the cost of the room and to talk to Expedia which also was a nightmare. They did also comp us breakfast which was their cheapest thing on the menu that had toast and eggs. I’d never stay in this hotel again or recommend anyone else to. At least we saw some cool pigeons out of the window.

The property is obviously older with a mix of updates and elements that have seen better days. It was clean and comfortable though. Great location to walk to the Museum Campus (even with a 5-year-old in tow) with good, quick dining options and Trader Joe’s within a couple blocks as well. Staff didn’t go out of their way to say hi or chat when we were in the lobby but were all friendly when we did interact with them. Would be happy to stay here again. Thank you!

Staff were great but the elevators sounded like they could breakdown any minute and the hallways were very noisy. Rooms not very clean. Have stayed multiple times in this same hotel due to location to the Museum district and standards have lowered for sure.
