Good accommodation. Quiet, clean and spacious. Close to almost anything in downtown Chicago. Only qualm is the somewhat odd entry thru an office building which requires a badge, take the elevator to the 39th floor, and then another elevator to the 40th floor. But it's worth the effort.

From the time we arrived through checking out, both the building security staff and the hotel staff were amazing in every way! Always positive, polite, attentive, welcoming, and courteous. The building, hotel, and the room itself were immaculate. The amenities were wonderful. The view was breathtaking both day and night!!! This property and all of the staff are an absolute hidden gem!

Great location, close to Amtrak.

We had a nice night, it was a little difficult to figure how to get in the building, but once we did, it was easy. We walked to a place a block away for a delicious breakfast and then walked 2 blocks to the train station to head home.

This hotel was so amazing! The building security went above and beyond and the front desk staff for both overnight and morning were friendly and very knowledgeable. Such amazing service and such a beautiful hotel. The view from the room was perfect of the city line!

Great stay! Great views, really! The train makes a lot of noise and we can hear from the room, but that’s not the hotel fault, but, in the future I’ll prefer some option without this disturbing recurring from every 15min 24/7 noise
