The staff was helpful, the room was clean, somewhat noisy due to proximity to road, and general Chicago noise. Breakfast area was supposed to be open by 7:00 am, but was at least 15 minutes late. We opted to walk across to McDonalds.

Nicely updated for the price! Hotel is a bit of a strange layout but once we figured it out it was fine…certain elevators are to get to certain areas. When we arrive elevator we needed was not working but they were trying to fix it.
