Hotel was very convenient given our dinner reservations across the street. The lake view off the 20th floor was slightly blocked by other buildings but nice. Though Expedia should call out it's not a complete view of the lake for the extra cost. Building only had 2 elevators for 21 floors...and one of the elevators was broken. So it took forever to get the elevator at times. No ice machines on the floor. No fridge in the room.

The hotel location is great. It’s close to shops, restaurants, and entertainment. It’s very walkable to Michigan Avenue. The room was not as advertised on the website. The speak was dated and didn’t have a Bluetooth connection. The entrance walls were dirty with scuff marks and residue. The brown couch in the living room had a tone of white stains. The cords from the TV were so disorganized and hanging from the base of the desk. Lastly the heating/cooling unit was exceptionally loud. I don’t think I would stay at this hotel again but it was an okay experience for a winter weekend trip.
