In town for a wedding. Enjoyed J Parker rooftop bar and especially Patrick, who was very personable and a great asset to your staff. The reception was at J Parker and we had a great time. We got upgraded when we checked which was very nice.

Horrible hotel, would never recommend. They gave us a bizarre room in between two elevators, when we went down and asked for the room we had booked they said they were trying to do us a favor giving us the other room since ours wasn’t ready yet (mind you this is 5 PM- so 2 hours after check in). Staff then just walked to the back and come back 10 minutes later, just hands us a key to a new room, which was vile. Dusty, dirty, hair in the bathroom. Also- Elevator was tiny and buttons don’t work for the 11th or 12th floor. No refrigerator in the rooms, no hook or rack to hang towels. And another guest was explaining to them that while his room key worked, anyone could open his door without a key and the staff did not seem worried or bothered by that. Skip this hotel entirely!

Where to start? How about mold in the bathroom. Or maybe the window units that made horrific sounds all night. Or the beds that look and feel like cardboard. We tried two different rooms, ya know due to the mold. Every room has its own problems. The rooftop bar is beautiful. The lavender vanilla latte, amazing.

I needed a hotel near my house while repairs were being done. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Great location, pleasant views and funky-artsy vibe. There are some updated rooms, but I did not have one of those. Very small, basic room and bath. The only chair was a desk chair. The queen bed took up most of the room. Bath could use more counter soace and grab bars in the tub area for safety. It’s ok if you won’t be in the room much and plan to be out enjoying the major city park across the street, the Old Town neighborhood, Lincoln Park Zoo and access to Mag Mile. The top floor bar has a spectacular view with interesting decor, but consistently bad food. In general, food choices in the hotel are limited, but there are lots of good restaurants nearby. Don’t expect the amenities of a major hotel. Stay here for the friendly atmosphere, views of Lincoln Park and Lake Michigan as well as walkability to city attractions.

Lots and lots of mold

The room I was checked into had a musty smelled and mold all over the ac unit. I complained and was moved into an upgrade suite that was even moldier. They gave me a refund, and I ventured out to find a new hotel very late at night. Mold is a serious health hazard and it’s absolutely wild that their cleaning staff doesn’t address it.

No food options for breakfast. The coffee shop had no food options and the on site restaurant does not open till 4pm. Rooftop bar cosed for private events and otherwise opens at 4pm as well. If you stay here you will need to leave premisses for anything other than dinner.

Definitely cheap on amenities. Old elevators at this location always make getting to your room a task. One was out of order, which wasn’t their fault but every time I stay here it’s always a big wait for the elevator. Staff slightly rude at one point. Had a few other minor issues but overall just not worth the price.
