    Close to the park and the stadium. Very small lobby. No place to really hangout around the lobby area. And No coffee shop! They don’t even make espressos! They said they didn’t even have an espresso machine at the restaurant.

    Staff was amazing and very helpful, gave us a lot of great recommendations for places to check out and also upgraded our room for free. The room was very nice, a little tight but that is expected in Chicago. Bathroom was perfect great shower, amazing view from room and bathroom window. Very conveniently located, quick walk from the train. Highly recommend and would stay again
