Right on Michigan Avenue, very close to the Museum of Art and the Magnificent Mile, with subways and buses extending in all directions. The room was large, clean and comfortable, the front desk and staff were very nice, and I liked the overall atmosphere of the hotel. Next time I come to Chicago, I will book it again and recommend it to friends who come to Chicago.

Except for the excellent location, the other feeling is very bad. The arrangement of the rooms is very strange. I feel panic when walking in the corridor. It is so simple that it doesn't feel like a hotel at all. We booked two rooms, and the front desk was arranged in a corner that can't be found. The air conditioner is like a tractor, and the effect is poor. It is not recommended at all

The hotel has a long history and is relatively old, but the environmental hygiene is acceptable! The only drawback is that the ventilation in the toilet is very poor and the toilet flush is too weak!
