Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient and quiet after dark, making it great for visits to downtown Chicago. However, the rooms were disappointing with issues like dirty socks from a previous guest, broken curtains, and a strong, unpleasant perfume sprayed in the room. The service was lacking assistance and blamed me for a reservation mix-up I didn't even know about.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms weren't clean, the lights were dim and broken, and there were bugs that left me itching. However, the jacuzzi rooms, once ready, provided a nice touch. The service was disappointing, with rude and inconsiderate staff who showed no concern for guests in need. On the bright side, the location was good but overshadowed by the terrible staff. The dining experience was lackluster, with free but not fresh meals served. Overall, the stay had its challenges.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were really clean, and the linens felt fresh, which was a big plus. However, the soundproofing could be better, and there was an issue with accessing the room that created some discomfort for us as a couple.
