    The location is stunning, in the Chicago South Loop area. The bets part that it's adjacent to Grant Park, the starting and finishing line of Chicago Marathon, restaurant, and Navy Pier and museums.

    The bathrooms are a little small.

    Everything was very good, highly courteous staff, great views of the park. The room was brand-new and nicely furnished and what's more - included a shower, a hairdryer, and bath robes. The breakfast looked satisfactory with a wide array of options. It was in the central location in a sketchy neighborhood.

    The hotel had fantastic staff, with friendly, personable, and helpful service. The room was very comfortable and clean, with amenities like a large TV and comfortable bedding. The location was great, right opposite Grant Park, perfect for events like the Chicago Marathon. There was a nice restaurant with affordable options and a good variety of food. The hotel had an easily accessible computer for quick printing of boarding passes.

    Felt happy, no reason to complain.

    Greatly enjoyed the place, had a pleasant stay on this last visit. The hotel had a central setting near bus stop. Further, it was short walk to all the attractions in the Loop and Northerly Island, Soldier Field & Museum Park.

    The views were not so good.
