Nice hotel in Chicago. Parking is extremely limited in Chicago so you will pay for parking every where you go. Parking at this hotel is $40/day. It is right across from the hospital so yes…you will hear emergency vehicles. The night I stayed was not that bad. I stayed in a room with double beds. Very spacious and it was clean. This is the Marriott so expect to pay for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was quiet at night, but once morning comes the slamming of the doors is pretty heavy and rough. Nice and comfy beds. Pillows are very puffy and your head practically sinks into them so if you don't like that bring your own pillow. Ample room for hanging clothes and bathrooms are updated. This hotel is right in the city so there will be lots of road noises. Hotel is close to pretty much everything. The people here were very friendly and even offered us water bottles as we went up to our rooms. In order to get to your floor you must scan your hotel bedroom key card. Valet people were really nice and even suggested parking across the street at the hospital if we only wanted to pay $20/night. (Hospital parking across the street is $20/exit.)Report
I go here when I just need some time to myself or if I've had too many cocktails, and I work the next day ?????. Not far from food and bars though, and a few clubs are within 5 miles.Report
The room and staff were exceptional . I recomend this place anytime! ??Report

Won't be staying here again. Reservation was deleted by the front desk before arrival due to them not paying attention to the first name. The room wasn't cleaned well (very dusty) and the curtains had what looked like blood stains on them. They only gave one of each of the towels with two guests and the room was ice cold no matter how much you turned up the heat. I usually stay on the magnificent mile and I will never venture away from there again. Only stayed here due to the close proximity of the Bulls stadium for a game.Report
The Good: Hotel was 1.5 miles from The National Museum of Mexican Art, our destination for the evening. Bed was comfortable. Hotel looked like it has been renovated in the last 5 years. Room smelled clean. Staff was friendly.Report
The Bad: Hotel offers zero amenities and still blaming Covid19. Restaurant Closed, Bar Closed, Workout Room Closed. No Room Service. Even though all this is closed because of Covid19 they have Valet Only Parking. You can not self park on the property. You have to allow a stranger in your car to park it. I contacted the Hotel prior to staying and was told to download a parking app.
""At our property we only have valet. Some guest use Spot hero for area parking options.""
Above was my message from the hotel when I mentioned Covid still being a thing and not wanting a stranger in my car. Valet is also $40 a day.
I contacted Marriott on Facebook. And I was told someone from the hotel would contact me. They never did.
Saturday the day of our stay we got to the hotel. We drove around the area looking for street parking. Since this area is heavy with Apartments / Condos and Medical District / UIC all the street parking is permit parking. Begrudgingly we used Valet. In total there were four different people in my car. Parking the car, retrieving the car to go to our event , parking when we got back that night and retrieving when we were going home. I have no idea if these four people have had a vaccine or if they kept on their mask or if they used hand sanitizer. I wiped down every touch area with a Clorox wipe after each time I got back in my car. I know to some this is ridiculous ,but you know I haven't had a cold, flu or anything in 2 years by keeping myself and my family safe. I also cleaned every surface in the hotel room.
The hotel not allowing self parking is a disservice to the Hotel Guest. I had no issue with the parking fee.
On with more bad. I said the hotel room smelled clean and it did. But there was spider webs above the mirror in the bathroom and spider webs above the TV. Also above the TV is never dusted. See photo of white washcloth with dust on it. And photos of spider webs. Elevator doors looked like someone tried to claw their way out. Pillows were horrible.
Im my opinion Marriott has really sunk. Being a Bonvoy Member means nothing as well as brand loyalty.
