1. We asked for a lower floor to avoid the elevator delays mentioned in other reviews, but never had to wait.

"A perfect stay one block off the Magnificent Mile-Gold Coast " Read full review on TripAdvisor 11/26/2011 Vote

2. I recommend choosing a high flooor facing the back to avoid the almost nonexistent street noise - you can open the window slides and enjoy a good nights rest without recycled aircon air.

"Super- what you sign up for you get, space comfort and a central location " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/28/2011 Vote

3. For business, I'd avoid this property.

"Not a business hotel. Tourists only. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 6/13/2011 Vote

4. I definitely think the hotel needs to expand the amount of time they serve breakfast and dinner, to avoid the frantic crush of people all trying to grab food at the same time, and they should probably add a staff person or two (or rearrange the shifts).

"Buffet servers were very rude and unpleasant, everything else was good. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 6/23/2010 Vote

5. We avoided an hour wait at the Hancock and got rock star treatment in the fast line at each museum.

"Excellent property for families " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/5/2010 Vote

6. Navigating the buffet, where the staff struggled to keep up with the customers' rate of consumption, required constant vigilance to avoid stepping on small children with groaning plates.

"Good value - shame about some of the guests " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/16/2009 Vote

7. That was an annoyance that could be avoided during summer tourist season.
