Horrible check in experience when my iron and coffee machine did not work. Parking isn’t part of your hotel stay. It’s ridiculous. The housekeeping manager took almost two hours to replace my iron and coffee machine. Then lied to my face about the ironing board being new. Def coming back to Chicago. Never staying here again.

Terrible Terrible Terrible!

Was not informed at all about anything including $200 installment charge, $61 per night for parking and then had to find that out when I was checking out. Also I asked the front desk when I was checking in, if I had to pay for parking and she literally told me "Just bring the ticket and we will take care of that" which normally means that they will pay for that, and neither did I ever had to pay for parking in hotel in my life especially when it is $500 for two night stay. Also the key card to room just stopped working in the middle of the night, and I got locked out. When I went all the down to first floor to have it fixed, they didnt care at all. No sorry no nothing, just gave me new keycard and sent me away. So rude. And also they dont seem to inform the housekeeping about late checkouts because even though I had 1pm checkout, they were banging very loud on my door at 10am like they wanted to kick me out. After everything, i asked them if I can get the invoice of parking, so I can see exactly how much I have to pay for parking, they just slide me the paper without saying a word and gave me the annoyed look and said something in French between each other. What a professional and hospitable people! Never gonna come back here, ever!

Was very disappointed with the food options within the hotel. We tried both breakfast and dinner and paid over $100 for both meals and I’ve had better quality at a hole in the wall restaurant. The service at the restaurant was also sub-par. We are not the kind of family that can afford many vacations so I was severely disappointed to have wasted so much money at their “water view” restaurant. The room itself was nice, although the bathroom had a broken shower head and the shower liner and toilet had hair on them. We booked four guests but the room only had three towels. The hotel was quick to fix all issues within 20 minutes. There was also a stain on one of the mattress protectors which just wasn’t comforting. I won’t be staying here again.

we loved everything about the stay beautiful city view and more the bars and gym inside. What i disliked was how they told us to get a parking pass bring it back to the front desk to get scanned and we was fine but never said we would get charged for the parking and $170 was taken off my card so i had to call in and complain and the manager issued me the full refund back !

Big hotel, great security, be wary of location

This is a MASSIVE hotel. It was packed for the weekend and I had some concerns about noise and crowd control at night. Unfortunately, an extremely large group of college kids were partying in rooms right next to mine. However, one call down to security and it was quickly and swiftly handled! Didn’t have any more issues the rest of the weekend, shout out to the security working, they really care about making everyone’s experience comfortable. Also beware, this hotel is located right down town, which means most business near by will be closed on the weekends. You will have to venture into river north to get to any food

Do not waste your money

It was a Special trip for my son and I for Spring break. And from the moment we were greeted with a rude employee till we left with any sort of acknowledgment, this stay was one of the worst. Definitely not worth the money and to say I am extremely disappointed is an understatement. Rude employees that make you feel like you area bother if you ask questions. No housekeeping, then I was accused of lying. I will never be back.
