Really nice place in South Loop. I usually stay in South Loop when coming to Chicago because traffic is lighter, and parking is considerably easier than on the north side of Chicago. My advice, download ‘Spot Hero’ to find the cheapest nearby parking. We found a lot 0.3 miles south on Wabash for $14/day. That’s insanely cheap.
There are plenty of great restaurants/attractions within walking distance: Grant/Millennium park is a 15 minute walk, and northern Chicago/The Magnificent Mile, is 2 miles away. My wife and I walked everywhere, it’s honestly easier, and you’ll save enough money to pay for the nights dinner.
The apartment is ideal for two people. You could do 4 with the fold out couch, but it’s not going to be luxury. Nice decor, lovely shower, even had a vinyl player! Nice touch. Floor to ceiling glass, with a pretty decent view. The kitchen is stocked with silverware, cooking utensils, etc. Saved some $ making breakfast in the mornings. Jewel Cosco is right down the street (6 min walk) so you can grocery shop. Bring your own bag, because they charge.
I dig the place. Way more functional than a cramped hotel room, better amenities, and the price is competitive with any decent hotel.
...Oh, the gym is in a different building, right out the front door, and take the street on your first right. You’ll find the door to the gym, a lobby entrance, on the right side of the street. Bring your ID. Not a very big gym, so you’ll have to get creative if you’re a lifter. Dual cable machine, three grip pull up bar, a couple adjustable benches, and dumbbells up to 50lbs. If you’re doing cardio they have treadmills, and some really nice Peloton bikes.
