“What strikes me is the staff's dedication; reports highlight their kindness and speedy problem-solving, crucial given the compact rooms. Just a short walk from the Magnificent Mile puts you amid Chicago's best shopping, and the included hot breakfast is a welcome touch, setting the stage for exploring attractions like nearby Navy Pier. I think the Beaux Arts architecture adds a layer of historical charm to a very convenient location.”
