Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently highlight the hotel's prime location, with easy access to attractions and a relatively quiet setting in Streeterville. The spacious suites, some boasting over 700 square feet, often include kitchen facilities. A hot breakfast is a much-appreciated inclusion, though some guests have found the selection basic.

poor cleaning disposable utensils

the location was acceptable, near several attractions.

The room cleaning was subpar. Multiple stains and hairs remained from our arrival. mirrors were never polished. the breakfast was not exciting. the use of disposable plastic plates and utensils felt ridiculously cheap and not environmentally friendly. getting consistently warm water in the shower was tough. It was either too hot or cold.

An Okay Stay in General

hot option central location supermarket helpful staff ski pants expensive parking slow valet limited elevator capacity long wait

The breakfast included hot options and was quite practical. The location is in a convenient downtown location. there's a supermarket nearby. The staff was amazing and helped recover ski pants we left behind. They saved us!

The valet parking was costly and too slow to get the car in the morning. The hotel is an older building and the elevator capacity is too limited. Lines for the lifts took quite a long time. there were long waits.
