The noise in the hallway travelled into my room (specifically because i was beside the elevator, i could hear everyone).
There is no restaurant but rather, a small bar staffed by the front desk people.
The location is excellent. The price was very reasonable - i might stay again if i was visiting ORD.

Stayed at this location for 3 days and had a great time. I saw where some people complained about the size of the room but it was spacious to me ( 1 king size bed). The hotel was in walking distance from a lot of the places we wanted to go to. Only down side was that the room did not have a closet but still was extremely nice. On arrival there was a gift bag on the bed- never had that before. I would definitely visit again

I arrived very late in the early morning because my flight was delayed due to weather. Upon arrival, the overnight staff was very welcoming and receptive to my requests. Throughout the weekend the helpful staff was very friendly and informative. Beautiful room; nice and clean hotel in general.
