We loved our stay here. The front desk staff was absolutely amazing. His name is Maurice and he was the best hotel employee we have ever met in like 25 years of traveling. The room smelled nice and was spacious enough and clean. Overall a great stay.

Location is excellent. 2-3 blocks from Union Station (Amtrak & Metra), and a CTA Blue Line stop. About 5 minute walk to the Loop. Some great restaurants within a couple blocks. The hotel is older and a little shop worn, but it was clean and the staff we met were all friendly and helpful. Because we mentioned we were in a special anniversary trip, the lady at check in gave us two breakfast vouchers. Breakfast is buffet style, like what is free at many hotels (but not as good) and here costs $22. Had we paid for it, we would have been very disappointed. So book the hotel for convenience and skip the breakfast!

The staff were amazing at the front desk. They went above and beyond for us. The pool was a perfect temperature and perfect for a morning swim and a late night swim after exploring the city. My complaint is the sound proofing. We could hear all the street noise and I’m assuming if we were next to someone loud we would have heard them too. Bring earplugs and keep the fan on the A/C running for the night if you can. Parking is $65 so use park pirate for the lot just below the hotel. We paid $15 a night or so.
