Not what I expected ..

I did a ton of research before booking, wanting a city view was top priority. The pictures and description on hotels.com was cross referenced with the hotel website pics. The booking was two double beds high floor, pics show these ground to ceiling windows but the room we actually got was two normal windows and very small space, nothing like the pics. I did inform the front desk wondering if we got the wrong room, but we were assured that the room was correct and the front desk attendant said hotels.com has generic pictures and are not accurate. I explained it was exactly the same pics from the Thompson website and she had nothing to say. It was St.Patty’s day weekend and they were fully booked so no resolution. Still had a pretty view at night. .They had one elevator for a maxed out capacity hotel and it was absolutely awful. We took the stairs 19 floors down multiple times. The hotel was beautiful, very clean, the restaurant attached is a loud night club vibe, lots of traffic late into the night. I had two teens, we didn’t mind much, but I could see that being a turn off to some. The Gold Coast is a very nice area, we parked our car like two streets (not two blocks, like a 2min walk) over in a garage we reserved, use the spot hero app, don’t pay the hotel for valet. It’s super close and much cheaper. Easy shopping, lots of up scale stores, and food, we used public transportation and walked for everything. Also no mini fridge for our food either which was a bummer..

Hotel was very convenient given our dinner reservations across the street. The lake view off the 20th floor was slightly blocked by other buildings but nice. Though Expedia should call out it's not a complete view of the lake for the extra cost. Building only had 2 elevators for 21 floors...and one of the elevators was broken. So it took forever to get the elevator at times. No ice machines on the floor. No fridge in the room.

The hotel location is great. It’s close to shops, restaurants, and entertainment. It’s very walkable to Michigan Avenue. The room was not as advertised on the website. The speak was dated and didn’t have a Bluetooth connection. The entrance walls were dirty with scuff marks and residue. The brown couch in the living room had a tone of white stains. The cords from the TV were so disorganized and hanging from the base of the desk. Lastly the heating/cooling unit was exceptionally loud. I don’t think I would stay at this hotel again but it was an okay experience for a winter weekend trip.
