"As one of my first solo trips, I was glad to feel very safe and comfortable during my stay. I had requested and paid extra for a lake front room. On the fourth floor I could barely see the lake, but did face the park. Good news and bad news because the street noise was very loud at times. I ate in the dining room both evenings and the service was very good. The second evening my order was incorrect, but was quickly corrected. I couldn't get the shower to work and the showerhead was so high I didn't have any chance of reaching. The next day maintenance did fix, so water could be diverted to the shower. I couldn't find any information about the nearby attractions or restaurants. Good think there is Google. Check in was easy. Had a challenge finding the correct elevator. All-in-all, I would stay there again because it is very convenient to the Art Institute of Chicago. I read the South Tower is supposed to be haunted, but I received no visitations."
