This hotel was in the perfect location whether it’s for your first or fifth time in Chicago, you are always within walking distance of everything; including Grand Station which is about a 5 minute walk. The room was small, but it was the perfect size for 2 people and provided us with just enough space. The view from our room was beautiful and the staff were excellent. We will definitely be planning another stay at this hotel!
