I really enjoyed staying here. It was clean and well maintained with helpful staff. The gym looked great but I didn’t pack my workout gear. The connected Lure restaurant was excellent to experience. River North is a wonderful location and a very short walk to great shops and restaurants.

I loved my stay at this hotel. The check in pricess was super easy. I arrived way past the regular check in time and they were incredibly accompdating. The facilities are well kept and clean. The bed was very comfortable. I shared a room with my friend and we had plenty of space to spread our stuff out. Keep in mind, youre in the heart of a bustling city, so if youre looking for absolute silence at night, staying in the city isnt for you. Ill definitely be back for a longer stay to enjoy the art installations and the rest of the hotel.
