The front staff is amazing, had a last minute change of mind about the room I book and they upgraded us on spot. Everyone there is amazing and very helpful! The hotel its self is at a prime location and only a few minutes walk away from the attractions in Chicago. The valet service was good and very handy in a busy city like Chicago.
