"This hotel was nice and clean. Idk what others were saying in comments. Other than our tv isn’t working, all was good. Room was clean. A/C was working. We weren’t in our hotel for most of our time in Chicago so we didn’t care much. Staff were nice. Coffee at the reception was good. I’d book again if I ever go to visit Chicago."
