My fiance and I stayed here on our first trip to Chicago. We felt safe walking from here around the Loop area, and enjoyed how convenient it was to several train lines when we wanted to get out and explore Chicago's neighborhoods. The staff was very friendly, especially the man who served breakfast, and recommended fun restaurants. Breakfast is very... more

We were excited about the location, in the center of Chicago, not too far from the Shedd Aquarium and Field Museum.

The location, the rooms, all lived up to expectations... more

The staff was friendly and... more

The room was slightly small. However, all the furnishings were up to date. The only negative was the day/morning door attendant got a little snippy with... more

Selected because of its central and convenient location, I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort of the room and the friendliness of the staff. Truly one of the best bargains in Downtown Chicago. Will be booking at least two return trips soon. more
