Excellent location, underwhelming experience.

The main material in the room for cabinetry and decoration is plywood. That’s been laced over. I’m sure they were going for an edgy aesthetic, but it just comes off as cheap. The pillows were so bad it caused me to get less sleep. I was also disappointed to see that room service never cleaned, despite by telling housekeeping that I was leaving the room for the day and it was ready to be serviced. I had to inform the front desk when we got back late that afternoon, and they quickly came up to clean. Beyond those things, it was a decent room. Location is perfect if you want to be in Fulton market. The coffee shop and bar are nice, and you definitely feel like you’re in the middle of everything.

Staying at The Emily was a great experience for my first trip to Chicago. The location is great, as it's close to so many attractions and restaurants, including a delicious on-site restaurant, Fora, which I had twice in my three days. The front desk staff was friendly and informative, while the cleaning staff left my room sparkling. The room offered plenty of natural light, a comfortable king bed and a strong air conditioner (which was a necessity during a heat wave). I will definitely be considering The Emily when I take my next trip to Chicago.

I am not giving a great rating to this hotel for several reasons. The most important issue was that I was staying with someone who needed a wheelchair. Although I had requested a wheelchair and they had one available, I checked in late, and there was no one available to assist me with the wheelchair and our baggage. This was quite disappointing. When I asked the bartender for help, she said it wasn’t her responsibility. Additionally, the room was missing toothpaste, which is typically provided in hotels of this category. I had to ask for it. The only reason I didn't give them a lower rating is because of one staff member. I don't remember his name exactly, but I believe it was Shane. He really made a difference. Although the front desk staff was not particularly helpful, Shane was exceptionally kind when I checked out. He noticed I was struggling with the baggage and the wheelchair and helped me with everything. I truly appreciate his assistance.

Severely underwhelming experience. We had room 231. The front desk and especially the valet were exceptional. The Expedia booking made it look like there was a nice bathtub and well decorated room. There wasn’t a tub. When I went to talk to the front desk, they said only 40% of the rooms have tubs and it’s hit or miss if you get one or not. They said they were completely booked and didn’t have any other rooms to move us to. There is no place to sit. The only non-bed furniture is a terrible wire desk chair, with only a seat cushion ( no seat back); it was severely uncomfortable. There is no art, wallpaper, or decorations in the room. Under the desk is exposed lacquered plywood. The desk has a cutout in it for something that wasn’t there. The bed frame is a simple metal frame with a rudimentary headboard that isn’t comfortable. The storage solution is this metal frame behind the tv . There are no hooks or bins or attachments to actually use it. Overall, the room felt unfinished and forgotten about. It felt like a dorm room that a college student lended you for the weekend. This would have all been fine, if the price was comparable. We paid 420 dollars (after Chicago taxes) for one night expecting something much grander and luxurious than what we were given.
