    Value for money

Decent place for new year in Chicago. The beach is tidy and the views are incredible. Complimentary breakfast, good service.

It was a beautifully kept hotel, I would return anytime. Everything was exceptional, it had free wifi, nothing too much trouble. The staff did all they can for the best stay. Lovely garden and good pool.

The location was unbelievable, the rooms were common. A wonderful beach, priceless view. Also, Navy Pier was max 25 minutes walk to. Hotel was fairly clean. They made my stay superb. Quick check in and top-notch service. Had access to its wifi, it was great.
