Location is excellent, and the staff is wonderful. The main areas of the hotel (lobby, etc) are beautiful. Our room was lacking and in need of a deep clean and refresh. The wallpaper was peeling, chain lock was broken off, thick layer of dust on headboards, lamps, etc.

Unique: the benches in the elevators, uncomfortable pillows and the only updates are the keyless room entries and keyless elevator access. Public transportation is really convenient, also the short walk to the high-end stores.

I spent $345 for our room and it was tiny and antiquated. I’m sure they have better rooms, but we were pretty disappointed. The location was great though. We wanted to be on the mag mile so we were happy with that aspect!
