This apartment building/hotel provides a lovely respite from the busy, national chain hotels. The hotel desk staff was friendly and helpful. The room was actually a studio apartment well equipped with kitchen, coffee maker and ice. (I only wish I could have stayed longer). There was a great view of the Lake in this top floor apartment. Clean ad spacious.

The lobby of this hotel is stunning--a beautiful example of deco/nouveau. The rooms are on the shabby side. Mine, a suite, had a spectacular view over the lake and the Park. It was wall-to-wall closets--clearly meant for longer term residence, with a full kitchen and dining area. But the bathroom was tiny and shopworn, the bed less comfortable than I'd like, and the upholstery and bed-cover could have used cleaning. Not bad for the price, but not up to the level of the lobby. The continental breakfast provided with my room was the best I've ever had in a hotel--really good pastries, excellent coffee. The location is pretty good--not downtown, but close enough. And one of our party was sent to the sister property because this hotel was oversold. The hotel is nice enough and more centrally located, but at 9 p.m. it's an inconvenience to have to travel extra, even with cab fare provided. Moral: check in early.

I stayed with my children (age ranges 5 to 19 yrs) while in Chicago attending an annual conference. We usually stay downtown Chicago but opted for more room at less price even though we would be little further out. This hotel is literally 5-10 min. from downtown via Lakeshore Drive. The hotel is two streets from Lakeshore so we couldn't have been better off if we had stayed downtown. The suite we had was great. It had two double beds in the bedroom, a pull out sofa and a day bed in an alcove. These were perfect for the teenagers who want a little privacy. We also had a full-sized refrigerator and a dining table that seated 4 so we could feel at home having a meal. The security was great, you have to use your key pass or be buzzed into each area. The only drawbacks I could think of were the pots and pans were worn and the valet parking closes at midnight. If you plan on coming in late, count on parking your own car. Of the four nights we were there I parked myself on the street for two, used valet for one and a paid parking lot around the corner for the other (this was because we got in after midnight). Also, while I was perfectly satisfied with the continental breakfast with coffee, an assortment of danishes and teas, my girls were hoping for some cereal, waffles or eggs.

Service was horrible. They were overbooked and didnt let us stay at their hotel. When I asked how long they'd known, they replied ""Quite awhile"". Keep in mind, this was the manager. I was going to propose and he ruined our whole trip. We were sent to their sister hotal, the seneca, where the service was much more memorable, in a good way.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The room was awesome. It had the greatest view. The staff was friendly and very helpful in helping us find our way around. I will definatly stay here again. One of the reasons why I fell in love with Chicago.
