Except for our vehicle damage from the
parking
garage, our whole Chicago experience up until that point had been nearly flawless.

We have chosen to park our car at the Grant Park South lot a short walk north on Michigan Ave since it's cheaper than hotel
parking
and the in and out privilege offered by the Essex didn't concern us.

If you want to take advantage of free

The price of $69 a night was great but thats about what its worth (if there was free
parking
!) If you plan on never being in your room this is the place.

1)Valet
parking
(I cringed at paying 29.00 a day, we normally stay at a hotel that offers free
parking
to its guests)2) room seemed too small for 2 adults and 3 young kids (we had 2 double beds)3)location (other than grant park there wasn`t much else in the area that we really wanted to see)4) Savoy Bar and Grill prices were too high 5) rate I paid of 270.
