The location was perfect for attending a wedding nearby, making it very convenient. The breakfast was really satisfying, and the staff, especially the bellman, provided excellent service throughout our stay. Overall, it was a pleasant experience during our short visit.

Recommended for Solo Adventurers
The staff was friendly, always greeting me with smiles and making me feel welcomed. They even went out of their way to get me some fresh coffee in the morning which was a nice touch.
It wasn't exactly cheap, but you know, acceptable for what you get.

The location near the river is fantastic, making it easy to explore downtown. The room was spacious with great city views, but the cleanliness needed attention. I found hair in the sink, which was pretty off-putting. The breakfast options were decent, but pretty pricey, and some items seemed overcooked. The staff were generally friendly and accommodating, but I did experience a few delays at check-in that could be improved. The fitness center was well maintained, a nice escape for stress relief. A mixed experience overall, but I appreciated the central location and the comfortable bed.

This place suits me perfectly! I love the fitness center, 24-hour reception, and the bar lounge area. The staff's taxi tips during my first stay were a lifesaver. I’m definitely coming back for my next business trip.

Our family loved the gym. it was spacious and always empty, allowing us to enjoy some nice workouts together. The bedrooms were cozy with ample space for our luggage, making our stay super comfortable.
In my wife’s opinion, a dedicated kids' play area would be a fantastic addition.

Had a great time with friends here! We visited the stunning Millennium Park and enjoyed better drinks at some local bars nearby. The location is ideal for shopping, and the breakfast in the hotel was top-notch. The gym was a big plus too. Perfect for a fun getaway!
One downside was the cleanliness of the room. we noticed some hair in the sink and soap foam left on handles.

Perfect location near riverside attractions and fantastic breakfast offerings made it an enjoyable visit. However, the bathroom needed attention with a leaky faucet and an awkward toilet. The promised refrigerator was subpar, and I had to request an outdated mini-fridge for my essentials.
