8/10 Good
"The room was really oddly laid out (It's an older building), but everything looked and felt nice. It has a nice modern look to everything, and the water was really hot which is rare for most hotels, especially in Chicago in my experience. The location is absolutely fantastic for downtown shopping, parks, pier, food. Two minute walk to the heart of the Magnificent Mile. There was a fridge, microwave, and coffee machine in the room. We stocked up on fresh pastries from a fantastic bakey a few stores down, and went to the 7-Eleven on the corner for drinks for late night snacks. I've stayed at maybe 10 different hotels in this class in Chicago and I think this is one of the better ones. For parking, just an app and save some(A LOT) money. Lots of garages nearby that discount heavily with apps."

"Great location 2 blocks to Lake Michigan! Room was very nice. Bed was really comfortable except it was low to the ground like a futon. No coffee maker in room. coffee in lobby. Parking is valet and convenient but pricey 82 per day. Fir us it was worth it. Navy pier is close, LINCOLN PARK ZOO has the best gorilla exhibit ever! And zoo is free! Dont go to saquarium if it a football game day no parking so we missed out. The boat tour at Navy pier is so worth the low cost to see lake Michigan! Breakfast buffet at hotel is decent. Bar is nice. Deck on the 17th foor is wonderful."
