Pros
LEED-certified sustainable building
Pet-friendly accommodations with complimentary dog beds, bowls, and treats
Three top-rated local restaurants (Beatrix, Ema, Zombie Taco) available for event catering
Steps away from popular venues like Three Dots and a Dash tiki lounge
Cons
The lobby can get busy and loud during live music events
Some attractions like Lincoln Park Zoo and Shedd Aquarium require transportation (3-2 miles away)
“This River North spot has a lot going for it, especially its urban location near nightlife and key attractions. I noticed several comments about noise issues on upper floors during weekends, plus concerns about service inconsistencies. For travelers who prioritize location and modern design, and don't mind potential disruptions, it remains a reasonable option.”
