“This Gold Coast hotel stands out with its rich history and prime location, a stone's throw from Michigan Avenue; it's a place where old Hollywood glamour meets modern luxury, though some find the service misses that mark. The spacious rooms, particularly those with king beds and amazing showers, provide comfort after exploring nearby attractions like Navy Pier and Oak Street Beach. In my opinion, it's a property with undeniable potential.”
