Centrally located almost posh hotel
I booked this hotel through Expedia via the 40% option where you don't know the hotel name until after booking. 
The hotel is ideally located, between Magnificent Mile and Millennium Park (home of "the bean"), steps away from the river and next door to the House of Blues. I arrived really early in the day and was pleasantly surprised to find my room ready so I was able to check in at 9am. As check out was not until noon the following day, the central location of the hotel provided a wonderfully central location to walk to all of the Chicago attractions I wanted to visit. It is also close enough to the "EL" that I was able to get myself to and from the airport with my luggage by walking from the transit stop to the hotel (luckily weather was on my side and not raining at the time as it was a 10min walk with luggage).
The hotel tries to be posh with fancy furniture and decorations. The room and bathroom were spacious, the bed comfortable and a safe provided in the room. However, there was no hair dryer, free WiFi or information in the rooms about hotel amenities. The WiFi issue was a bit of a pain, but with the number of Starbucks locations nearby, purchasing a coffee for use of the internet once a day was cheaper then the cost at the hotel. 
Although this hotel was in a great location, I likely would not stay here again. There are so many other hotel options in Chicago.
