So close
Fabulous location, staff was very hit or miss on friendliness. Has a great bar, but the bartender could have been nicer. Needs a few bits of extras being that the rooms are very minimalist…hooks for coats, an extra chair, a place for cosmetics in the bathroom due to the pedestal sink

Cute little boutique hotel with rooms that have the original character of the apartment building it used to be. No room service. Restaurant with limited options and very pricey. Asked for coffee in the morning and it was brown water - horrible. I was also given the wrong room when I arrived. Next door guests were very noisy - thin walls. Way too pricey for what you get. Would not stay again.

So much better than any of the chain hotels. Loved the quaint atmosphere, small but cozy rooms very well laid out. First time I have ever had a heated floor in the bathroom! Very convenient location, blocks away from downtown and about as close as you can get to Northwestern University.
