Good place for weekend stay

Very nice staff. Great views of the city. Comfortable bed and clean room. Nice big TV in our room. Quiet. Only complaint would be it was too warm on the 15th floor. Definitely not a dealbreaker.

This was the second time my husband and I stayed here since I was running the Chicago marathon. It’s very convenient to the brown line train and walking by the riverfront. I was a little disappointed I didn’t get a view of the River like last time and check-in was a pain. Rooms weren’t ready and we were told the hotel would text me when my room was ready and they never did. The toilet also ran off and on all night and was rather loud so I closed the bathroom door. Overall, a good experience and the room was very comfortable.
