The front desk staff, doormen, and maid service was very pleasant. The hotel itself was not the 4 star quality we have been used to. There were not enough aminities for a celebration atmosphere. There was no bathtub for a bubblebath for instance....

The hotel had a great location just off Magnificent Mile, convenient to attractions and shopping. It had just opened so a full line of amenities was not available, but we did receive a discounted rate to compensate. They had an exceptionally helpful and friendly staff. The room was modern and very comfortable. The building was old, so the air conditioning unit did not cool extremely well but the windows did open a little.
We were always greeted upon entrance or exit. We were treated with equal respect as the other guests although we were dressed casually.

Okay
This has great potential but misses the mark. Tries to be a hip, boutique hotel but mistakes nice furnishings for true quality. I've stayed at a lot of 4/5 star hotels. This one needs some help to really make it shine. Get in some good management...
