The room and property was very clean and the staff helpful. The room had a fridge and microwave, which was nice also. We got a river view room and the view was excellent except for two things. There is a popular nighttime hangout spot where people pull over to enjoy their car speaker music by the river every night, so even 5 stories up, there was that, but it isn't too loud and didn't go too late. The giant Trump hotel was directly in our view, with a gigantic TRUMP sign bigger than any other in Chicago right at eye level, so if you don't get enough of that through other sources, there it is in your face on vacation. The rest of the view down the river was awesome, though. The location was great for walking to all the sites of the city. Parking is $30/day if you self park a few blocks away, but you can't come and go, BUT if you download an app you can "reserve" the parking for specific periods, which essentially gives you come and go car privileges, and a $25/day rate. Parking in Chicago is a big deal, and this was a pretty good deal, as was the room rate considering the location.
