A hotel-rates.com guest Families with young children United States August 29, 2009	The hotel was in fantastic view of the river and Chicago bridges. The hall smelled very musty. The bathroom did not have a fan in it.	10
A hotel-rates.com guest Solo travellers United States August 27, 2009	The hotel was located right in the heart of the downtown area and was close to all the attractions. The room clean and spacious. There were only 2 elevators going to the upper.	9
A hotel-rates.com guest Solo travellers United States August 26, 2009	Good price. The view from hotel was amazing. The hotel staff were real helpful and nice. The hotel was in need of some renovations.	9
A hotel-rates.com guest Young couples United States August 24, 2009	This was a good hotel in an outstanding location. The rooms were larger than most hotels in this city.You can walk to just about everything from it, and it was convenient to public transportation too. The only complaint was the thin walls. You can hear everything said in the hallway and in other rooms at times.	9
