    Proximity to train stations & downtown, beautiful lake view Figuring out the elevators was a bit confusing.

    Friendly staff, amazing location and a complimentary late check out. We'll definitely be back.

    Parking was easy, navigating the various paths took a little longer but was fine it you pay attention to the details.

    Definity view. the carpet gave an impression of old and maybe dusty

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Very safe, very convenient, good breakfast provided and gorgeous views!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The view and location are good It is a little difficult when you parked your car then went to the lobby

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Notes for improvement: The breakfast was okay (mainly pre packaged pastries) and a k cup coffee maker. Freshly brewed coffee would be nice. The beds were also a little too firm for our liking. Overall very nice though and a 8/10! We would return.

    Business friendly

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Starting off, the place is actually pretty nice inside. You are very high up so you have a nice view of the city from your room. There is security downstairs so you don't have much to worry about while in the hotel. The negatives however... The area surrounding the hotel isn't exactly safe. There are quite a few abandoned buildings nearby and lots of homeless people. The hotel makes an effort to try and nickle and dime you for everything as there isn't really many things provided to you. The things you normally see at other hotels such as maybe a bottle of water, disposable slippers or something...You have it in your room but if you open it, you will be charged.

    The view of the city was spectacular

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The view was absolutely breathtaking, the staff was friendly, the room was spotless, and the hotel was very affordable. Will definitely stay here again. I have no complaints

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Room and bathroom very spacious. Nice location as well. Tremendous view of the city. Breakfast with limited choices and fairly poor. They also charge everything, including 6 USD for using the slippers

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    this is not a hotel - it is a series of bedrooms off an uninviting corridor on the 40th floor of an office bloc, no proper reception, no facilities and the room was old, dirty, paint chipped, dreary and plain see the above - it was more like a prison block

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Room was very quiet with a nice view of Lake Michigan. Continental breakfast had several items. Stuff was very helpful. The only negative thing was that the TV ran on apps so you had to make sure you knew your login for your Internet TV provider.

    Loved it

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Loved loved loved!!!! View was amazing, location was great, friendly staff!! Everything was perfect!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The staff was exceptionally helpful and patient! The beds were comfortable, the view was to die for, left the blinds rolled up at night to look at the view! The tub was a struggle to get into because of the width of the front of the tub. Housekeeping is not every day but they did accommodate that issue.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Great view from 40 floors up. A little weird entering a financial office building and getting up to the hotel floor. Perfect location for our urgent appointment at the Chicago Passport Center. Breakfast was a few pastries and cereal—not impressive. Our 16-year-old couldn’t use the gym as it is restricted to age 18+. I got parking in the attached garage for $25 on spot hero for 24 hours.

    It was clean, big and the view was amazing! They charge for everything in the room including the slippers.
