The hotel is in a great location, close to transport and the river walk in downtown Chicago. Our room on the 24th floor had a great view of the skyline. The negative part was that we were charged a resort fee on arrival which was not disclosed when we made our booking. These sort of charges should be disclosed at time of booking.

Hotel was average at the best. I think the rooftop and the traffic of wild and mostly drunk people using the elevators all the time would not make this hotel as a relaxing destination. Location is great but the property needs some major upgrades and doesn’t match the price you pay for your stay- Will look for another location for my 4,5 star budget next time

Great location and staff generally very friendly and helpful. Room also good - big and well appointed. Some major issues were the general hotel is very tired and badly needs a makeover. Amenities are very so-so and staff in rooftop bar have poor attitude - and charge a fortune for drinks as they add an automatic 20% service charge in my experience. Everything in room (even water) is extra cost. Overall enjoyable but would not stay again.
