Aloft was amazing! The location is a 10 minute walk from the Grand red line station and had plenty of options for night life and food. I would highly recommend this as a short term stay option. Seeing as Chicago is quite loud (not the hotels fault) it might be nicer to stay on a higher floor but we were very comfortable during our stay either way.

All in all, it was a nice hotel. The valet was easy and workers were very helpful. Check in went smoothly and our room was ready before check in time. The room was nice but there were dings in the walls, a ball of hair on the floor and the toilet paper holder was broken. It just seems the hotel is just older and needs a few improvements. Otherwise, our stay went well.

This was an expensive average hotel. It was conveniently located. Close to almost everything a tourist would want to visit. The room was spacious but the beds were very uncomfortable and made with two flat sheets and a very thin down duvet to cover with. Had I realized I could have brought my own blankets. Overall it wasn’t terrible but it really isn’t a redo.

We enjoyed our stay there, we liked the wood floor design(much better than carpet), and the whole room looked clean and nice. Only the mini fridge in the room was a bit noisy, whenever it started cooling, it made a lound sound that lasted quite a while. Probably it's time to change to a new one.

The hotel is nice but its most definitely not worth what I paid, literally your paying for the lobby that’s all the pool is so small and so shallow you might as well call it a pond. Not a fan of the concrete rooms made me feel like I was in a low budget hotel. I stayed for 6 days and they don’t have any in room storage for your clothes you get what 3 drawers to put your stuff in and for 2 people staying for 6 days our room just felt so crowded because there is no storage. You all use a communal microwave….. so if I am hungry at 2am I have so go from floor 11 all the way down to 1 to microwave my food like what I paid all this money and I can’t even heat up my food in private. The view is not worth the price. I’ve seen better views of downtown Chicago from oak park which is crazy because that’s like 30 mins away . What I will say is that the staff is amazing I loved them the lobby is cute if your social but
