We booked at this hotel because of its location. We got tickets to the Monday night Bears season opener against the Vikings. This hotel was a super convenient 15 minute walk to Soldier Field. There are plenty of dining options around the hotel and there is a grocery store less than a qaurter mile from it. In terms of the quality of the hotel, it's ok. It's an aging facility with super small elevators. Like many hotels of similar age, it smells old and it shows its age. But the staff keeps the place looking clean and they are responsive to customer needs and requests. Speaking of staff, I had very limited interactions with them but they were friendly and professional when I did interact with them. I'm torn about whether I'd stay there again. This place is close to Soldier Field, the Field Museum, Shed Aquarium and the Planetarium. Given the food options and nearby grocery, it's tough to beat for those looking to visit those attractions. And, the price is very reasonable. But, for those who like newer, modern facilities, you should look elsewhere for your stay.

This was the worst state I have ever had first off. The bears felt like a rock and making loud noises every time you sit on it the bathroom toilet leaked few towels were dirty. Overall, the building was very old and need a much of a upgrade every time I went outside there were people just hanging out outside Like it was a corner store. I will never ever stay there again and I am just upset that I paid almost $300 per night for this experience.

Go somewhere else

The first night our shower broke, the toilet wouldn’t flush, and the toilet paper holder broke off. The beds are not comfortable. Vending machines for beverages were all broken so we had nothing to drink. We told front desk about these issues and they sent someone up to fix our room stuff- shower still would barely drain, and toilet wouldn’t flush at times. I will admit the location is nice since it’s next to grant park and there is also the Paris baguette place for breakfast but with all these issues we will not be returning.
