First off this location is not really kid friendly. After valet, and ordering at the restaurant employee seemed to want a tip, when every thing is so expensive to begin with. Really not worth the money. I understand it’s Chicago but so what. I won’t be back. And behind the front desk they had some goofy setup of spray paint cans that were painted white?

This is one of my favorite hotels in Chicago. Beautiful views of Lake Michigan and of navy pier. Just a few minutes walk to navy pier or Michigan ave. Has nice bar and a pretty cool nightlife on Friday and Saturday nights. The rooms were very clean and spacious.

Amazing Location
I will say the decor in the hotel was a bit much, dark dark lighting with bright yellow/orange lights. Kind of like a really dark vegas hotel. But the location and amenities made up for any decor in the hotel Would definitely stay again.
