Clean Room, nice pillows, padlock grate over window, you do not control your room temperature it's unit wide no air conditioner or even ceiling fan! The hot water was amazing. The kind suite w sofa does not have a balcony it's set on a busy intersection corner with glass walls, 1 small window opens. It's a good place to crash for a night with a hot shower! Just make the description clear on all rentals sites!
The 5 star is for every associate I came into contact with was llkind

The room was very hot. The noise carried both inside the hotel and outside. The beds were harder than expected.
Clean, Nicely Furnished, and central to town, Priced right but note if you are driving there is a charge to park - though reasonable for an inner city lot and secure,The Staff was awesome - Have a Good Night !
What’s great little find. We frequent Chicago one very regular basis and this was by far the most friendly and cleanest establishment we have stayed at since COVID. Bravo. Only draw back is no pets. Other than that I couldn’t find anything to complain about. Quiet. Oh you can’t control your temperature. It got a little toasty at night but some trade offs.
Excellent service from the concierge/front desk, and not as loud as we expected given the location (some street noise but I could be worse!). The room was also very clean.
