Great hotel for city break *

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

The modern hotel is installed on the south Michigan Avenue. From here you can reach the most important sights of Chicago on foot. The nearest metro is about two blocks away. Bus stops are also not far away. We had a queen size bed, the room and the bathroom were big enough. We had a corner room, therefore, two windows overlooking the Willis tower.
It was always clean and the staff was very friendly. A safety deposit box at the front desk rented to be. The hotel has a bar/restaurant. The hotel is perfectly suited for a city break, we would not hesitate to stay here again.
