Wonderful

Best part about our stay was the location. The two bedroom unit was underwhelming. I requested the two queen setup in one room which was an option but I did not get it because it was not booked direct. The price was high for what it was. Also people live there and one woman was rude to my teen daughter for trying to use the hot tub. It was weird like maybe the residents don’t like that the Sentral also has temporary guests. Also the parking is confusing and check in is done using a kiosk. Overall, it wasn’t terrible but I wouldn’t come back.

Dirty noisy underwhelming.
Expected a lot. Was underwhelmed. Shower grout grime. Stained shower curtain. Stained towels. Gross couch cover. Smart thermostat kept changing the temp or rebooting and becoming useless for half an hour. Fridge stink of spoiled food. Bed is stuffed in an alcove so you have to climb into it. Useless 10 cup coffee brewer. Sandy feel to the floors. Noisy baby across the hall kept waking me up.
This apartment had some of the most spectacular views of the lakefront and the city that you will find. Apartment was spacious and a great value compared to hotel rooms. Check-in was a little difficult. Staff was helpful but not overly friendly.
Mi experiencia fue excelente, sobre todo en mo que hace a la atenciòn al cliente. El señor que me recibiò la noche que lleguè, tarde, LaShaun, fue muyyy amable, siempre predispuesto y muy calido. Tuve que devolver una compra de amazon y los empleados me Hicieron el gran favor de llevarlo a devoluciones. El dpto estaba impecable… muy amplio, cómodo, buen ubicado. Cdo vuelva a Chicago no dudarè en ir a sentral. Gracias x todo!!!
Amazing room, great pool, friendly and helpful staff. Check in had problems. Room was not ready until almost 7pm. Staff was unable to credit room cost because we prepaid. They did offer late checkout, but would have preferred credit. Parking was slightly complicated, but not a major issue.
Everything was so beautiful, everyone was so nice. I will be staying here again soon. One of the best locations you will find to be close to anything in the South Loop. They also have a system where they will watch your luggage after your check out if you still want to check out the city before your next flight! 10/10
Took my 12 year old daughter with me. Easy walk to soldier field. Very happy with our stay. Would stay here again. They let us check in early for a small fee too.
