was run down, elevator broken some really bad areas around pool entrance.
My stay here was great. Just what my sister and I needed. Very relaxing clean and smells good. Breakfast was great and we didn’t have to pay for parking and it was safe convenient parking. The staff is definitely top notch. Very polite and accommodating. Everyone was sooooo nice. Took away all my fears of staying in Chicago. Thank you so much.
Nice, clean, and convenient area considering necessities…. Becoming a bit worn in areas, although some updates in bathroom were nice.

Initial Disappointment Saved by Staff
We booked our trip through Hotels.com & paid for our room ahead of time. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were informed there was a $150 hold for incidentals the hotel needed to run on a card. We were not informed of this ahead of time, and had not made the necessary financial arrangements to be prepared for that. We were able to move some things around and make things work, but it was a very stressful and upsetting start to our trip.
We also selected this hotel specifically because we wanted access to a pool. Upon arrival, we were informed the pool was closed for maintenance and would not be available for use. There was no notice on the website about that.
The hotel itself was pretty average; no major amenities or extras. However, the bed was incredibly comfortable! And the staff was absolutely amazing. They were extremely apologetic about the lack of information and the pool being unavailable. They cut our incidental hold down to $75 for us, and they refunded us a night's stay for the pool inconvenience. They were incredibly understanding and supportive, which made the stay worthwhile.
I booked this location for the pool and the pool was dry as a bone. Pool has been out of order. Terrible!!! I had things to print out which I normally do at hotels and this hotel’s printer was not functioning. Also I asked house keeping for towels. She came to bring them, knocked on the door and just came right in with her key!!!
The staff is polite and helpful. The gentleman at the front desk was very cordial and helpful while he was handling several tasks. More staff is needed.
