    Value for money

The location was convenient, easy to find from the interstate and close to popular Chicago sites and shopping. The hotel had clean rooms with comfortable beds and a filling breakfast. The staff at the front desk and breakfast were friendly and helpful.

Couldn't fault.

We loved the convenient location close to Mag Mile, Trump Tower, River Walk, and Rush St. The hotel facilities were excellent, including a well-equipped gym and clean rooms with city views. The staff were friendly and provided helpful recommendations for local attractions and transportation.

Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was perfect - just a short walk to downtown sights and the nearest subway station. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained. We appreciated the convenience of the self-parking option nearby. The breakfast provided was delicious and had a good variety of options. The staff was friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to accommodate our requests.

There was nothing we didn't like.
