The staff are very friendly, helpful. There’s a metro station nearby that we can get to Wrigley field for Cubs game. Only that the parking fees stated in the hotel description on Expedia as $30 per night but it is $40. A bit surprised.

Switched our room without notice. Blood on mattres

When we arrived the lobby was in full party mode. At least 50 people just hanging in the lobby like it was a bar. We got to the desk and the reception could not have been more dismissive. Got to our room and they had changed us from a 2 queen room to a single king. I had my 2 adult sons with me, thus the 2 beds and a pullout couch. When I called the desk they told me they needed my room for someone else and since I didn’t say 3 people were going to be here they changed me. I asked for a manager and was told “ahh man, he just left”. So apparently they have the right to change your room without notice even though I booked and paid in full 6 weeks prior. Since we didn’t have an option and had already paid $500 for the 1 night, we stayed. Unfortunately when we opened the pull out bed we found blood stains on the mattress, the blanket in the closet was wet, and had no extra pillows. We called the desk again and asked for a new blanket and more pillows and were told “we don’t have any right now. We closed the pullout andy son slept on the couch cushions with a sweatshirt.

The location is excellent and very convenient. During check-in, I noticed that the woman with glasses at the front desk—who I believe may have been a manager—was a bit short with the young man assisting me. When I checked out, she helped me directly. While she was efficient, her demeanor could have been warmer and more welcoming, both to guests and staff. That said, the rest of the team was very hospitable and contributed to a pleasant stay overall.
