People were helpful and I got in one of the renovated rooms which was nice, but the air was blowing and it was hard to control the temperature, and the sliding door fell off it’s hinge. It’s my second time staying here and the highlights are roof bar and location. Facilities are just tired and not great - even the renovated rooms. If you’re going to stay here be sure to ask for one of the renovated rooms.

Staff was great tying to accommodate, but rooms are very dated, and worn. Beds not comfortable, old and worn out. Heat didn't work and changed rooms. Second room wasn't much better cycling on and off. Didn't stay around the second night because of temps. Restaurants are very nice.

First, the front desk gentleman who checked us in, as well as the woman working with him on the evening of December 26, were friendly and helpful. The rooftop bar is pleasant too—though since we don’t drink, we returned three of our four complimentary tickets when checking out. The location is decent, not far from the water. Now the rest. At around $200 per night during the Christmas season, plus $39 per night for parking some distance away, the room was a letdown. It was small, dark, dated, and tired-looking. The queen bed had an uneven mattress, the headboard was essentially a piece of fabric hanging on the wall, and the bathtub had unpleasant chips. Not great, but we accepted it as holiday-season reality. What we could not accept was the air conditioning. It didn’t run—it roared, loudly and unpredictably, making normal conversation difficult. Sleeping required turning it off, which led to a fun overnight cycle of too hot, then too cold, and sleeping dressed. Despite all this, I was prepared to write a positive review—until 5:30 a.m. on our second morning, when the alarm clock (which we did not set) went off. Same room, two nights. No alarm the first morning. Surprise alarm the second. While we regret not leaving a housekeeping tip (we only had $100 bills), an unrequested 5:30 a.m. wake-up call feels like an unusual response. Dear management: consider removing alarm clocks as we all have phones. And future guests—come prepared. Surprises here may arrive before sunrise.

The heater units in the room were quite loud. The room itself was older, but charming and very clean, with a great view of the park. What was disappointing was the level of service. While I struggled to load several suitcases into my SUV with my elderly mother beside me, the doormen sat on their phones, occasionally looking up but not offering assistance. The front desk staff were polite but disengaged, and interactions felt flat and robotic. I have lived in Chicago on and off for several years and rarely feel the need to leave a negative review, but in this case the staff seemed very young and/or not adequately trained in hospitality. With better attention to guest service, this property could be much improved.
