Great spot!

This spot is wonderful. It was big enough for two couples; having two bathrooms is awesome for getting ready for going out. Having the kitchen and living room meant we spent much more time hanging out with our friends than if we had had seperate hotel rooms. You get a lot of noise from the elevated trains but that's worth putting up with since you are right on the loop which means you can get to any neighborhood in Chicago without hassle. You are right next to the river, there is a Trader Joe's within walking distance, and there is so much to do. The only reason I am not leaving a five star mark is due to the front desk "concierge" people. The person I made arrangements with was completely fabulous, on the ball, and answered all my questions quickly through e-mail. There were two people who worked the desk who were very helpful and nice, but there were also two who treated my partner and I so poorly that I was shocked. I hope they go away or get a little lesson in diversity or something.
Aside from that, the apartment is lovely and the rooftop is a great place to hang out with its pool table, hot-tub, lawn chairs for sunning, etc. If you need breakfast the Monaco is just around the corner.
