1. It was on the 25th floor, decent view (partial lake view), spacious enough for the two of us, combo bath/shower, and clean.

2. Room views vary greatly; from the lake to the river to none, so if this is important to you get a request in early.

Five minute walk to the boarding area for Wendella lake & river tours -great trip,10min walk to the fab Millenium park,5 minutes to the House Of Blues for a great Sunday brunch -little touristy but had great fun, 3 blocks to the Red line metro which will get you to the theatre district in 5 minutes & Wrigley Field or Celluar Field in 15 minutes,directly beside the stops for the free trolley to Navy Pier so we really couldnt have asked to be in a better location.
