Don’t book through Expedia, I had to leave my vacation early because I had to rush my travel companion to the ER as they were struggling to breathe. Great hotel, just don’t book through Expedia. You will have problems.

Hotel Riu Plaza Chicago
Desayuno excelente, el staff amabilísimo, y la ubicación super. El único detalle fue que la calefacción del cuarto nunca la pudimos regular a nuestro gusto ( hubiéramos querido que fuera menos caliente)

The Wade
Had to change rooms because the floor in the bathroom has sticky stuff all over it, plus hair in the shower. The elevator sounds like a rocket ship, so no matter what room you have, you can hear it going up or down. Other than that, it has great views!
