    Value for money

We loved our stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, with bars, restaurants, and a grocery store just steps away. We also appreciated being close to the Red line for easy transportation around the city. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the staff provided excellent service. The breakfast options were fantastic, with delicious choices like lox and bagels, salmon eggs benedict, and pancakes. we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Didn't dislike anything about the property.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The newly renovated rooms were stylish and clean. The 11th floor room provided great views of the street and even the lake. The hotel staff was accommodating and helpful. The hotel's location was perfect - we could easily walk to the Magnificent Mile and take the Red Line subway to the museums.

Nothing it is perfect.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The room I booked exceeded my expectations with its spaciousness and amazing view of the neighborhood and the lake. The location of the hotel was perfect, with plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance. The lobby bar was a great experience, and I also appreciated that this hotel is dog-friendly but still very quiet. The front desk staff were helpful and attentive to my needs.

Nothing, all was good.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was top-notch, with a well-maintained and fresh room that provided a restful sleep. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The location was ideal, close to Michigan Lake and within easy reach of popular sights in this city.

Couldn't stay longer.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and had everything I needed, including an iron, blow dryer, and coffee maker. The design of the rooms was a bit quirky, but it actually worked really well. The bed and pillows were comfortable, and there were plenty of towels. The wifi was fast and reliable, and I could connect as many devices as I wanted. The staff were attentive and helpful, from the reception to the cleaning crew to the doormen. The location of the hotel was one of the best I've ever experienced in a city. It was situated in a quiet neighborhood with great food options within walking distance. Additionally, there was a parking garage right next to the hotel, which made it convenient for guests with cars.

No issues.
