Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown River North
Staff was pleasant. Room cleanliness was mid. Splurge of something down the picture frame along bedside so hopefully sanitation is taken seriously. Pool was shut down for the evening of last night of stay and extremely over crowded every other night with kids and no parents! Not what the rules stated ...
