Cleanest hotel we've ever stayed in. Friendliest staff ever. Price was outstanding. I'm sure it costs a lot more in the summer, but this was perfect for a winter trip.

No parking available, the hotel was nice, room etc. but breakfast was overly crowded, cafeteria style. They say breakfast is free with stay but then I was charged $85. When I asked what the charge was for they said for breakfast, room service etc. plus parking was an additional $150, not on site so not too pleased with the overall experience. Staff was very nice though.

Our stay at the RIU exceeded our expectations within the hotel! Only downside was that it didn’t have a parking garage. Although the parking across the street wasn’t bad at all.

The staff was helpful, courteous and very pleasant. Wonderful breakfast. My only « issue » is the extra charge for amenity use at the hotel ($28/day ) for a gym that I will never use. Having said that, I would go back to the Riu in downtown Chicago.
