I didn't like that my room wasn't clean when i made it up to the room, but I called for housekeeping, and they came. Then someone kept jiggling my door handle, me not knowing what's going on, i called downstairs and they said oh yea they are checking the locks on the doors, could have given us a heads up. Sounds like someone was trying to come in.

Exceptional Stay at Aloft Chicago Downtown River North From the moment we arrived, our experience at Aloft Chicago Downtown River North was outstanding. Despite our late check-in around 8 or 9 PM, the staff greeted us warmly, and everything was prepared in advance, making the process seamless. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and offered a stunning city view from the 12th floor. The bed and pillows were incredibly soft and comfortable, providing the perfect rest after a day of exploring Chicago. We enjoyed breakfast at Beatrix, the hotel's attached restaurant, and it was delightful. I had the lemon pancakes, while my husband opted for the ham and cheese croissant sandwich—both were delicious and satisfying. On evenings when we were too tired to dine out, ordering Uber Eats to the hotel was convenient and hassle-free. The hotel's location is ideal, situated in the vibrant River North area, close to numerous dining options and attractions. While the TV in our room was a bit glitchy, it didn't detract from our overall experience, as we weren't there to watch television. Additionally, the room featured a functional desk space, which was perfect for catching up on some work. Overall, our stay at Aloft Chicago Downtown River North was exceptional, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. We will definitely be staying again and shout out to Thomas and team.
