The hotel is located at the best location, the river view from the room is amazing during at night and on the day. Everything was perfect, the rooms were super clean, the bed was so good, nice decorations and I felt very secured. It was walking distance to the train station and you can even walk to the Navy Pier. The staffs were so friendly and welcome. They were very helpful in letting us know all the information that we ask.

The location was perfect! So convenient to all the big tourist attractions (most within an easy walk) and public transit was easily accessible as well. We were near our boat tour launch and enjoyed walking to shopping, shows and museums. And the River Walk was right across the street and down the stairs…loved that!
