Negatives: The rooms were small.


Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 02 May 2011 rated 10 out of 10.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 15 Feb 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

Overall decent for the price we paid, clean, but checking female staff was rude. Lobby area nice but again, the shape of this building offers much confusion even with the few maps they have posted. Pool area is excellent on rooftop but enclosed for all year use, and a sun deck with lots of space. The beds are a bit on the firm side but comfortable, and the other downfall was the coffee "pots" in the rooms made only 1 cup of coffee at a time. The way the hotel layout is designed it's not easy to stay inside in bad weather to get to the lobby area.

Positives: Free parking!

Negatives: Rooms small and layout of hotel was confusing with not much direction.

We have always loved staying at this hotel. Very convenient and appreciate the free parking. I did not like walking past the painters and fresh paint. Especially the smell of fresh paint in the room.

Positives: Staff is very friendly and professional.

Negatives: Arrive to hallways being painted-smelled, and some noise which later ended.

We have stayed at this hotel for years and continue to go back. Rooms are on the small side, but very clean and staff is wonderful. The location is close to everything. Nothing fancy, but just love the place. We go back year after year. Free parking in a large city is a plus. Wonderful parking lot staff. Wonderful staff in every department. Helpful, polite, friendly. Deep dish pizza in on site restaurant is top notch. Nice Pool and love the deck outside. Wish it was open past 10:00 PM.

Positives: Free parking, great staff, good location, great time.

Negatives: Slow small elevators, small bathroom, rooms needs updating.

Overall nice hotel. Room was clean, albeit a little small, but for one night, it didn't matter. Pool area was very nice. Only complaint is that the walls are thin. We could hear people in the hallway and right outside the window talking as if they were in the room with us.

Positives: Pool area was very nice. Room was very clean.

Negatives: Very loud, could hear people outside window & hall as if they were in your room with you.

The location to Downtown Chicago was excellent. We were able to bus to museums and Navy Pier. Parking was free, so we just left the car parked. The accommodations were only average. We couldn't take the elevator straight to the pool, we had to switch elevators on the 4th floor. Breakfast was good and economical.

Positives: The location was excellent. It was easy to get to museums, and plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

Negatives: There were 2 sections to the hotel, and we had to jockey elevators to get to the pool. There was painting and other maintenance going on.

Hotel met our expectations, convenient location. Rooms were small but clean, obviously an older hotel, could use some upgrades, but was perfectly adequate for what we needed. Would stay there again (staff was friendly and helpful).

Positives: Location.

The only reason I stayed here for such outrageous rates was because there was nothing else available in Chicago. I'll never stay at this hotel again.

The hotel was in a great area, lots to do in walking distant. I was there for a large conference and didn't get to do too much. The only real problem I had was that I was traveling with a coworker that I had just met. The room only had one bed and a pull-out. So it was awkward. It worked out fine but should not have had to go through it.

Positives: Lots to do in walking distance!

Negatives: The non-smoking room was not avail.
