For the low price of this hotel, I have to say I was impressed! Judging by the reviews online I expected something absolutely horrific and prepared myself for war. Instead I got a decent room that was very clean and quiet. The location is also totally unbeatable for the price - you're a mere 5-15 minute walk from anywhere in the Loop and right next to a lot of transit options. Seriously I was so impressed. The one downside is that our room was relatively hot and we couldn't find a way to control it and lower it, and the bathroom supplies (soap, shampoo) were a bit lackluster. Very low quality and no conditioner... but hey... you get what you pay for. Maybe I got lucky, but I'd stay here again.

I loved everything about this hotel. It is so beautiful and elegant. In walking distance to everything(of course) The staff was so nice and helpful. I do see a lot of people reviewing the room sizes, which yes, they are small, BUT, the fact of how old the hotel is and how beautiful it has been kept up. I had no issues what so ever. The rooms were cozy with a view. Just exploring the hotel and soaking up all the history. Absolutely amazing. I will never stay at another hotel in Chicago!

My family including my brothers and sisters and their families just spent the last 3 nights in this hotel. In total, we had 9 guest rooms. It was the most disappointing experience I’ve ever had in any hotel. The website touts about its “modern amenities”, but that is one of the most laughable things I have read about this hotel. There wasn’t even an alarm clock in the room. The rooms were not just old. They have not been cared for. Furniture, rugs and walls are all in horrible shape. You would never know this by standing in the lobby, however go to the rooms and you will see what I mean. The cleanliness of the rooms was atrocious. The bathrooms were so filthy, we had to wear flip flops so as not to be our bare feet. The rugs were shredded and the dust on the bed’s headboard had dust 1/4 of an inch thick. We never had housekeeping the entire time we were there.
The restaurant! Let me tell you about the restaurant. My husband and I had dinner there one evening and the server appeared to have never waited on a table in his life. He made multiple mistakes including bringing our appetizer at the same time as our main entree. The food was extremely overpriced. Which is absurd, in and of itself. If this hotel pops up for you as you’re looking for a hotel in Chicago.....RUN. Run as fast as you can! We will never consider this place ever again. What a shame that a grand piece of Chicago history has been so disrespected.

This hotel has a lot of character, history, and charm. The location is perfect. I didn't give a 5 star, because there should more effort in maintaining the hotel. I didn't care that the room furniture was outdated, there should be more attention spent on the details. A table in a quiet space had lots of dust, the lighting was very dim. I would stay there again, it was fun to explore.

I chose this location for two reasons: the convenient location and the option of a room I could smoke in. I was traveling for business and the ability to smoke inside was so needed for me. My room was very clean and quiet. Nothing too fancy, but the shower was hot and the bed was comfortable, at the end of my exhausting day. My main complaint is that my heater did not work and it was very chilly during my stay. I also noticed that their vending machines are emptied quickly, so grab your sodas for your room while you can. Three trips to the vending machines near the lobby and I never could buy a Pepsi - not a deal-breaker but it was kind of annoying. I loved looking out my window and had a very cool view of the city. No microwave nor fridge, but I wasn't there long enough to need either item. I would not mind staying again when I have more time to enjoy the places nearby the hotel, since it is within walking distance of so many interesting attractions.
