Great experience
We found this when looking for a relatively hotel in or near the Downtown Chicago area. The price was quite good for the area it was in. The hotel was within walking distance to the Navy Pier, Michigan Avenue and the river.
We arrived early and were exhausted, and asked for the first room available. though they were sold out the night before, we were called 15 minutes after checkout with the first open room the had. In the mean time they were able to check our luggage for us.
The room we were in was quite spacious and very comfortable. The hotel looks like it may have been two buildings, with the original hotel over the parking lot, and the building with the pool over the lobby (western end of the hotel) appears it may have been an old apartment complex. These rooms were quite nice. The only real complaint was how loud the AC was.
Overall, it isn't quit high end, but works well as a decent value hotel in the River North or near downtown areas.
