I hate having to make the hotel decidions, and I usually do so based upon tripadvisor reviews and then make my own realistic review. At first, I was a bit disappointed....the lobby was so tiny, and no one greeted us. In fact, it was 2pm and there was only one person at the reception desk and he was on the phone for more than 5 minutes. The room was rather small, and the closet was tiny and the door was in a very bad location in the room. The TV was nice and the bed was comfy, however there was some traffic noise, afterall, this is downtown Chicago....and those taxi's LOVE to beep their horn EVERY chance they get. Convenience was that it was across the street from a good restaurant (Haray Caray's), and there was a &-Eleven and a liqour store right around the corner. There was a continental breakfast on each floor every monring which was very nice, as well as an evening reception on the 6th floor which included free cocktails and appetizers (cheese and crackers, bruschetta, marinated mushrooms, veggie tray etc), however the atmosphere in the room was a zero, as it was in an empty hotel room with a few high top tables and no seats. All in all, I would give our overall stay a 7 out of a ten.
