8/10 Very Good

Greeted by an evening male receptionist with a very curious, disdainful manner, which set things off poorly. The lobby is charming and well decorated, conforming to era. Excellent coffee available in the morning. Hotel location is good, 10min walk to CTA trains (clean and orderly), and many restaurants and shops around. Of special note is the very helpful and pleasant day receptionist lady, made all the difference to our stay.

Rooms were a little dated and the mattress a bit too soft for me and my friend, other than that it was a good place to stay. Staff were always friendly when asking questions.

Quaint Convenience
Quaint Convenience. Everything was great. 1 exception I found annoying. They LOADED the mini fridge drinks. Liquor, Beer, Soda, water. Why is that annoying? Because they don't have ANY signs showing how much everything is AND there was no room for MY water, and MY beer. They're trying to trick you into consuming it. AND on the counter! 2 bottles of cheap wine and 2 bottles of uppity water like Evian. Sneaky! Whatever, smh

Great neighborhood location.
Great location and easy ($25/night) garage parking nearby. Comfortable bed, room and bathroom were nice and clean. Although room temp was comfortable, some difficulty sleeping as A/C unit was loud intermittently throughout the night.

The hotel has a tremendous amount of old school charm. The lobby area is a wonderful space and the fresh baked cookies in the evening were on point. So many bar and restaurant options and easy to connect to mass transit.

Great Staff
Beautiful old hotel. Very well maintained and still keeps its 100 year old charm. Very comfortable beds. Hotel staff was excellent. The gentleman on the desk that evening went above and beyond to help us when my sister had fallen and needed first aid. Great staff service continued in the morning with ice packs.
