It was a Okah space to be honest. But just to clarify the bathroom bar was already broken. And it was like spectacles of hair in the tub as if someone had shaved but over all nice.

This is a great value property in downtown Chicago. It’s super close to tons of good places to eat and shop, as well as easy access to public transit. It’s an older hotel, so night quite as fancy as other properties, but the staff is super friendly and the property is clean. The elevators were quite slow and small, but that just comes with older buildings. It was a bit on the louder side, but it was also NYE in downtown Chicago, so that’s to be expected. Overall, great place to stay for the price!

Poor customer service

I was late for the checkin so they canceled my room. I ask if I could still stay as I was charged and wanted to stay there and they said no. It was Christmas Eve and I had to scramble to find something else and had to settle for a hotel that was not kept well or clean
