I stayed here when I could get a reasonably priced room at my regular Chicago hotel when traveling for business. Overall it was a good studio room with a decent kitchen set up with a full sized refrigerator and dishwasher. Location was really good and the front desk and doorman were very helpful.

My wife, son, and I stayed here for a few days in March as part of a mini-vacation. The hotel accommodations, the service, the location, were all excellent. I travel a great deal for work so I experience both sides.

The rooms were clean and reasonably functional.... More
