They insisted that the room be paid upfront. Which, in my experience, is not standard protocol when staying at a hotel. You're charged when you check out.

Hello, My name is Steven. If I may, allow me to clear this up. We do authorize the card upon check in. As you stated earlier we charge during check out. Unless you are using a debit card. If you are using a debit card, we do take the funds off and refund the money back top you which takes a couple of days.

My husband and I got in at around 10:30 on a Sunday night. We saw people heading to their rooms, but we were told at the front desk that they were having AC problems and we were being sent to another hotel. They quickly pointed out directions and sent us on our way around the corner to the Warwick Allerton Hotel. We didn't get any apologies for the late-night inconvenience, and we're still a little confused how other people were there, yet we had been bumped. I never actually got to see the room I paid for, so I can't really rate that with any authority, but the room we were put in at the other place was a room with a double bed and we were supposed to have two queens. Not really a great experience while traveling, and not a very helpful/informative staff.

Great hotel!!!!

The room was great, very comfortable beds and specially the pillows made my night and my dauther’s a relaxing time after a road trip. Only complaint: the room was warmer when we turned out the heat, lol.

This hotel needs work.

Pros: Friendly staff
Cons: Update the rooms and take care of their insect problem
Location: The hotel was only one block away from the Magnificent Mile and very close to Northwestern University's medical campus
We arrived in a rainy downpour, and the staff who greeted us at the door, and took care of the valet were wonderful. The front desk staff and all the hotel employees were friendly and welcoming. But I was very disappointed with the cleanliness and the overall condition of our room. I do understand that they were in the process of renovating other floors, but our room was well below what I thought a hotel room should be in this stretch of downtown Chicago. The carpet was dirty. The bathroom sink took a long time to drain. And to top it all off, Saturday morning we found a two and half inch long bug climbing our window curtains. There was a $6 dollar a day service charge for the good care that the hotel staff provided....which was no more than any other well run hotel. Its pretty unlikely that I would recommend this hotel, or recommend it to a friend.

Some funky, some modern, great location

Location: The lobby coffee bar was great with Intelligentsia coffee. Top floor bar happy hour had great location, but $2 appetizers were a joke. Tiny.
Loved the decor, bathroom, headboards, and space. Appreciated the fridge and the friendly front desk. Fitness room was ok, not great but serviceable. Lobby was funky and cool. Great stay overall

Great location but hotel itself needs improvement

Great location, walking distance to Michigan Ave, various bus and L stops. Clean, and staff was very helpful. Doormen were super friendly! However, for downtown Chicago and the price you pay, Mile North should make several improvements. We had multiple issues with our keycards. (They still use the older version of magnetic, inserting cards) We had a "suite" and the bed was a very uncomfortable, double (not even queen!) sized bed. Bathroom had no fan and no towel racks or robe hooks (other than inside the shower). Sink was inside the room with toilet and shower, making it difficult for a family of four to all get ready at once. We did not bring a car, but be aware that the parking was $62 PER DAY! Wifi is additional EVEN IN THE LOBBY. They will also automatically charge you a ridiculous "resort fee" for fitness center (which we never used) and a "business center". (which was 2 iMacs in the middle of the lobby) Plan on paying additional for breakfast, too. The hotel boasts of a rooftop with spectacular views, however they do not allow access before 5pm and no one under 21. We asked if we could just take our kids up just for a few minutes during the day or before they opened as a bar and were told no, which was surprising. The lobby bar closed at 10:30pm even on weekends (never stayed at a hotel which the bar closed that early) and the rooftop bar had private events 2 out of 3 nights we were there. If one wanted a late-night drink, you'd be out of luck.
