Loved the rooms! Very spacious and clean. The service was amazing as well. Had a minor issue with my TV and they sent someone right away to fix it! Very efficient, and friendly with comfortable rooms I looked forward to coming back to! It’s also located near the Mag Mile which made it convenient to walk around downtown Chicago!!
