I did some research for all the Hotels in Downtown Chicago, I picked this one as it has Great location, Breakfast included and Pool. We booked a corner suite with a amazing View on 16 floor, for a family of 3, with the kitchen and fridge and dishwasher. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the Breakfast was great and all the hotel Staff were super friendly and helpful. I was able to extend my check out until 1pm for a $39.00 fee. The Subway Grand Station is 5 minutes to Hotel, to catch the Blue line to O'Hara and a Shuttle to airport , takes about an hour door to door. Make sure you have $3.00 US to $5.00 in change to get to and from Airport. The subway only has a few machines that take cash or credit. The Pool at the Hotel was very nice, and warm and open until 11pm , with clean towels , and a Gym. Hotel is walking distance to all the shopping, and attractions, Cathedral and restarants and Jewel Grocery store. Thank you Homewood suites and Staff for a wonderful stay in Chicago, beds were very comfortable. We also caught the Bus 146 to Solder Filed to see OASIS in Concert. this Bus was great to travel to this area.
