A hotel-rates.com guest Families with young children United States August 26, 2009	The beach was only 2 blocks away?It's great for us. The room that we were given was very small.	8
A hotel-rates.com guest Young couples United States August 26, 2009	The bed and bedding were soft and comfortable.It was within walking distance to old town, quaint restaurants and shopping, and love music in the hotel bar!	10
A hotel-rates.com guest Mature couples United States August 22, 2009	We love this hotel great. The doormen and valet parking were good, the elevators quick, the place was clean and the staff helpful and professional. The carpet was a bit icky, and the TV was tiny and fuzzy.	9
A hotel-rates.com guest Solo travellers United States August 21, 2009	Clean and quiet. In Gold part of Chicago, charming neighborhood.It's about an hour's walk to the Art Institute of Chicago. Bathroom had just 2 strips of shelves, and didn't have a place to put all my toiletries.Parking is about $40 a night.	9
