The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile

8/10 Good

"Staff was nice rooms we’re super outdated. We were missing a door to our closet. The bathroom wall was peeling off in the bedroom part. It looks like the trim had water damage and was coming up We didn’t get our amenity package until the day we were leaving, which was useless. The breakfast was good. The location is great all in all. It’s not a bad hotel rooms need to be updated completely."
