Bring a pair of slippers or socks to wear in the room because the carpet feels grimy on bare feet. Be prepared for a lot of interior and exterior city noise as the room is not well sound proofed. Do not expect high class, luxury accommodations even though this hotel is located on Michigan Avenue and has a beautiful Art Deco lobby. The lobby is the one and only stunning part of the hotel, save the flat screen television on the wall that ruins the lobby's aesthetic. Also, be prepared to stand in line to check in and out.
