Michael’s fifth floor accommodations were highly recommended to me by a dear friend of mine, who had stayed with him in the private room in 2019. I had bookmarked his fifth floor private room in anticipation of my next trip to Chicago. When the opportunity came up, I made a reservation.
Michael provided excellent communication throughout the experience; weeks before and days before. Check in was pretty easy process as there was a remote check-in. We had full access to an awesome bathroom, as well as the private shower and toilet in our room. My boyfriend and I had a fantastic trip to Chicago and walked to many places during our April Birthday vacation from this spot. We booked our trip when it was cold and missed the rooftop garden in bloom but the space is filled with art. Michael lives there but was not intrusive in any way. Our last night we switched to the loft room which was comfortable. There is the night club across the street that was playing music pasted 11:30; the window didn’t buffer the sound much. I am used to ear plugs, so no issues for us. During the daytime the space was warm and inviting, I fell asleep on a sofa accidentally and my boyfriend also took a nap on one of the sofas as the nooks of the space are just that inviting. I hope to return back to see the roof top garden in bloom.
