The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile
"The property was good, no pool which is fine for us. Read that there was a hidden mandatory fee but book with Expedia and that was not the case. Card didn’t open the door to the hotel room on 2 occasions but that was the only hiccup"

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast
"No water sold in the hotel. Instead they tried to upsell me in a package that I didn’t need. Think you need to change that policy. Our entire group of 4 rooms were disappointed."
