The location was good and the room was fine, comfortable but dated. There was a lot of construction in the hotel, had to walk all the stairs because the elevators were under construction, and they were long lines everywhere. For the high cost, I would stay somewhere else next time.

Chaos! Breakfast long lines, only one set of elevators working, evening reception was potato chips and dip. Daily Destination fee that they claim is mandatory by Hilton but it’s nothing more than a money grab and profit booster. Choose a different Embassy Suites or hotel.

Room itself was good (spacious and clean) but servicing was very late in the day which wouldn't normally be a problem except we were travelling with kids. We were suppose to get a king bed but got a queen instead. We arrived late and the kids were already sleeping so we didn’t want to make a deal of it but that’s kinda weak I think. Over the weekend, the hallways smelled of weed. Otherwise no unpleasant smell but a lot of room services dishes and plates left in the hallways for more than 24h. Also the wait time for the elevators were excessively long on the weekend. Finally, the 2 bellmen downstairs need a refresher on professionalism as we inquired about taxi to the airport and they happily offered to call “their (embassy hotel) own driver” and quoted us a fixed price which we agreed to. A regular city cab arrived, and ride was smooth to the airport until were made to pay more once we arrived. Hard to contest any of this when we have 2 young toddlers to worry about.

Half of the elevators didn’t work it was impossible to get in and out. Breakfast was terrible with gross food and way over crowded. Like impossible to get a table. Sketchy characters in and out of the elevators. Bathroom needs a new bathtub and door totally broken. This was way overpriced for what we got. Also ordered room service (a warm chocolate chip brownie) was supposed to have ice cream candied cherries and pecans. It was cold, had caramel syrup and none of the things that the menu said. Basically, everything was a huge disappointment and we will never stay there again.

The ONLY Reason for the mediocre review is because after our room was cleaned, the iPad was gone. Nothing satisfactory from the desk and It’s been a long time since I’ve had anything stolen. Very frustrating. I wish we had booked a little closer to Michigan ave because of the cold. But that is nothing anyone could control!

Property has some challenges, we did not get the corner room that we had reserved, they upgrade us to a premium room however no premium benefits, they did not tell us about this at check in, only after i asked about the room and why things was missing, room, bathroom door was damaged and had to force to close, no vent in batherroom, short on towels and blankets sheets for the second bed, and apparently there is a destinations fee now 25.00 per night, They did give s food voucher to compensate. Two of the elevators was off line to going to breakfast or to the room tool 20 t 30 minutes to go back and fourth, better to park at airport or cheaper parking location than park at the motel, very expensive, staff was friendly,
