The Hotel Cass was very nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was conveniently located to many of the main things to do in downtown Chicago. The breakfast area was very crowded, and the food, although not terrible, was repetitive. The room was perfect for our family of four.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was incredibly tiny. Very few outlets. Very small bathroom. The floor was not attached to the sub floor so it sounded like our shoes were sticking to the floor when we were walking. The room was absolutely freezing. When we turned the thermastat to 74, burning hot air blew so hard it took our breath away. 73 degrees was arctic air freezing us out. The windows were desparately thin, the screens were falling off of them, and the entire area in and around the windows were like a freezer. We put drinks on the window bc the room did not have a refrigerator. The space around the window was absolutely FREEZING. I wanted to fill a water bottle and asked at the front desk the woman told me there was something I could use in the breakfast area. I said there was but the water was hot. She just said oh and did nothing to cool the water or provide ice. When housekeeping came, they made up one of our beds and left the other. Lots of noise from the street, hallways are very noisy. It was an interesting stay.
