Business trip.

The hotel is next to the main river that runs through Chicago. Great location. Loads of shops and eating places nearby. If you come in from the airport on the blue line, 10 minute walk to the hotel. Taxi can take 30 mins to one hour depending on the time of day and traffic. My room was 1101. Very quiet and looked out on the water front. Staff very friendly and always happy to help.

It was a little bit confusing to drive to that hotel because they are a fuel levels of roads and they have no parking lot near a hotel. It’s closed, but you should know where to drive.
