I was not impressed overall and honestly expected much more from a 4.5-star hotel in Chicago. Check-in with the concierge was smooth, and the staff was polite and efficient, which I appreciated. However, the condition of the common areas left a lot to be desired. The hallways and entrance carpets looked unclean, and the elevators also did not feel particularly clean. The lighting in the entrance area was poor and gave off a rather uninviting vibe. Service was inconsistent: I requested a blanket one night, and it took nearly an hour to arrive. Access to water was inconvenient—only two bottles were provided, and there weren’t enough fountains. Offering reusable bottles for guests to refill would be a much better experience. The in-room amenities were disappointing. Towels looked worn and old, the shower had weak water pressure and limited flow, and it was unclear what room service was available, if any. Overall, while the staff was professional, the property itself did not live up to the standard I was expecting. Definitely not on par with what a 4.5-star rating suggests. Will not return and certainly do not reccomend.

Although it’s a nice conveniently located and clean hotel in the downtown area with great staff, ask for a printed invoice when you check out rather than get an e-invoice. And the reason for that is, we were going to be charged for parking for 2 days ( parking isn’t cheap in Chicago at all) although we didn’t even have a car! ☹️ and also for a meal we didn’t charge to the room. They were all reversed but was a bit disappointing.
