Small gem, but cute

They have a breakfast included everyday, I don't eat breakfast but my husband loved it everyday. The location we found close to everything and easy to get uber. Great shopping two blocks away, largest Starbucks in the US is literally is two blocks away. You can get an uber and or bus both easy to access. The door man was very friendly and extremely helpful. With all that being said, we had a great time. But make sure you look at square footage of the hotel room, because the rooms are extremely small, I cannot emphasize this enough. As a result of the small room, we saw a many things and it forced us to get out and enjoy our time. Front desk, was somewhat helpful. Meanwhile, for the price and what we got I would likely stay there again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Location was near shopping and dining, very convenient to mass transit. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. For the most part, the room was fine. However, there was a lack of storage space. (One small closet with a very small, 3 drawer chest inside) The towels were functional, but they were not all that absorbant and several needed repair (holes, etc). Overall, for the price, a very nice hotel and would recommend it.

This hotel has some history to it. It has been fully restored and updated. The rooms are on the small side. But, the staff and location are outstanding. This is being said with the knowledge that the location is right in the middle od dowtown Chicago and "Big City" noise is part of the stay. Breakfast eggs and sausage was hot and fresh. My only issue was the parking garage. It is on the small side for full size trucks and suv's. So had little trouble finding spots. As I had to park at end of isle slots to avoid any overhang.
