I needed to get away and decompress for a day. Chicago is very hard to beat. Found a great rate and booked it. My daughter and I stayed at the Downtown W last summer so I knew what to expect (trendy and upscale).
The positives were the big flatscreen, cozy bed, interesting view,
in room safe and downtown location. You can walk to almost everywhere that matters. Great home base for shopping.
The downside is paper thin walls. At 130am I called the "ANYTHING-ANYTIME" line for some earplugs. At 230am I called them back...never mind, Need sleepy! Also know it is $45 to park.
Overall I would score the hotel a 10/10. Every employee was very kind and helpful. The room was cool, clean, and cheap. At checkout I told them about the earplug issue. Asked if they would take $20 off the parking. They said sure.
