Prepare to be roasted in your room since the A/C in the building is off for the seaons and there's no way to control the room temperatures, except to keep all the doors and windows open in your room the entire time! The room temps will rise into the 80's so trying to lower them at night takes hours and it's so noisy.
This is information is not in the room listing but is a notable problem and somehow the host, Kasa, thinks it's acceptable force guests to sleep in a hot room or at 75 degrees if they keep the windows and doors open the entire stay. The noise is unbearable, especially at night, so I was kept up until all hours trying to lower the room temps with no offers of help until 2 am when a fan was offered but couldn't be delivered until the next day, and even then all it did was blow around the hot air.
This is a brand new building so I'm sure most people would assume you can control the a/c and heat in the rooms. However, this building has an HVAC system that doesn't allow the a/c and the heat to be operable at the same time. This means either the a/c is on or the heat is, or nothing neither one.
This time of year, neither the heat nor the a/c is on so you can't do anything but run a fan from the thermostat but it doesn't do anything but recirculate the warm air. With the sunlight streaming into the room all day, even with the blinds closed, it causes the room to be 80 degrees. Daytime temps outside during my stay were on average about 65 degrees, 72 was the high on one of the days, but inside that building, the room was uncomfortably warm and Kasa isn't candid about this in the listing so beware!
Of course when I brought all this to Kasa's attention, it took hours to be offered another room and it was in a building in the dangerous South Loop or one room in another inconvenient/dodgy location, but regardless, I couldn't move because I had a paid for a rental car for the next several days and couldn't take it out of the garage without losing that money, as well as needing the location for this building for my business trip needs nearby.
Also, the elevator situation in the building is a problem too. There aren't enough of them for the amount of residents, unless you stay on floors 30-60 which aren't Kasa units. Prepare to wait a full 5 or 6 minutes, or more for the elevators because there's only 3 and this is a huge building. It's really frustrating not being able to get out of the building in a timely manner nor to your room when you get back at night, esp. on weekends! The longest I waited was 7 mins for an elevator.
If you can put up with what's stated above, then otherwise the building is well placed and it's nice to have Whole Foods a block away and some decent restaurants. It would just help if Kasa would be honest about when the building is in the midst of these seasonal change overs from a/c to heat, it's a period of a few weeks , and if you stay here, esp in the fall, prepare yourself to be uncomfortable and unable to control the temps in the rooms.
Having a really hot room and having to keep the doors and windows open around the clock with all that city noise, is a lot to ask of a guest for these rates. I didn't sleep well during my five day stay and Kasa has thus far refused to offer any refund. I would have chosen a hotel or different place to stay had they been honest and candid in their listing so I think it's fair anyone contemplating staying here be informed, hence this long review.
