The staff, location and comfort of the bed makes this one of better places to stay in Chicago. We loved every moment of our stay! Highly recommend this beautiful hotel to stay within walking distance of all the things, but to be far away enough from the crowded areas. Also highly recommend the wine and beer bar up the street! It has great outdoor seating and great vibes overall.
