Room lock was broken (clearly forced open). The lock was hanging off the screws when I checked in. Also staff were nice but not very helpful. For $1000 reservation, they refused to give me late check out and kept asking me when I was leaving and if I needed help with my bags anytime I passed through the lobby. I felt rushed out every time. Not good.

Take the blue line right to Jackson stop and walk to the hotel to enjoy the neighborhoods. The Blackstone is stunning, the rooms serene and clean. Our room had a fabulous 9th floor view of the lake. Read “Living Land marks of Historic Chicago” by Goodrich to get an idea of all there is to see. Check out the art hall floor, and art corridor murals a block behind hotel.
