Valparaiso Holidays

I recently stayed at the Aloft downtown Chicago. The pictures on the websites are the same as the rooms look. The rooms are decent size, as I had a king size bed that was very comfortable. Was update that I requested a city view and didn’t receive. AC works very well. love the bathroom, fyi water, does get very hot. Another helpful tip, you will not receive housekeeping unless you stay more than 4 days. There are a lot of activities to do within walking distance. I chose not to rent a car as you have to pay $75 per day to park Uber/Lyft is the best way to get around if you need anything within a 30 minute distance… Approximately $20-$30. If you are catching a Uber/lyft from the hotel, please be prepared to pay $75 to get to this location.

Charming hotel with fantastic service. Great location.

Lobby and shared space downstairs is beautiful and location is great in Fulton Market. We walked to many bars and restaurants and enjoyed the vibe. The rooms are underwhelming, no closet space, bathroom space lacking, and feel dated despite trying to go for a modern-industrial-chic vibe. The quality of the rooms do not match what the lobby area indicates. The hallways seem like they didn’t get touched in whatever remodel happened here. Overall I think it’s overpriced for what it delivers.

Overall a good experience. A small con is that the halls are a bit noisier than other hotels. My room was by a trash chute used by housekeeping consistently and the room doors do shut loudly. But the location on Michigan Ave is great.

The hotel and area was good. The only problem we had was with the plumbing. The moment we got there the toilet kept backing up even if we did not use it. Other than that. I would give it a try again. It was a really nice place to stay!
