Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop, Chicago
I was only in town for one day. But it was an easy seamless check-in. The room was clean and bathroom was clean. Everything in the room work and I had no need to call or any assistance. The checkout was very simple was done on my phone as I walk down the hallway before leaving.

Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites
My husband and I loved staying at this property. The facility was clean and comfortable. The staff were nice and caring. I particularly loved how they handed us a couple of water bottles upon our arrival and departure. I am planning on going there again the next time I visit the city of Chicago.
