“The hotel's position in the Loop is truly advantageous, making it a straightforward base for business or exploring the city's core attractions. My stay revealed rooms that are thoughtfully designed, with clever touches like sliding doors that create distinct spaces, and a rooftop bar offering genuinely striking city views. While the unexpected resort fee was a surprise, the offered vouchers for the coffee shop, which crafts an excellent chai latte and serves as a pleasant work spot, helped soften the impact.”
