Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites
Room was nicely appointed, clean and comfortable bed and pillows. One downside was the room would not cool down past 73 degrees. It was hot and made for pretty uncomfortable sleeping conditions. Would like to stay again but they need to get the air figured out.
