I had a 6th floor corner suite with great amenities--2 TVs, nice sofa, table, chairs, fridge, microwave, coffee maker. The bed was in the corner part with nice windows. Everything was clean and in good working order. However, I was there on a weekend coinciding with spring break and the place was like a carnival with hundreds of families with lots and lots of kids. Two of the elevators were not working so I was lucky I could take the stairs from the 6th floor to the 5th (lobby level and atrium/food/drink area) and could then take a different elevator down to the street level. The place seemed a bit chaotic at peak (breakfast/happy hour) times. Staff were fine. Breakfast on weekends only starts at 7:30 and I was attending a conference whose sessions started at 8 so that was not ideal. But my main complaint was that the sound of elevators going up and down near my room (or under my room possibly from parking/ground level to 5th floor) was constant. Apart from that, the location is excellent, right across from Whole Foods and close to everything. The price and amenities were great but it was far noisier than I'd expected.
This hotel was dirty. The housekeepers never came to clean our room during our stay even after requesting multiple times. The staff was rude especially the cleaners and the bar hostesses. They did not have properly working elevators so I had to take stairs up to the thirteenth level, or wait in line for the elevator anywhere between 10-15 minutes anytime people wanted to use them because these was so much traffic due to non-working elevators.
This was ok for the price and the location right next to a conference I was attending but it kind of made me wish I spent a little more money for something nicer. Half of the elevators were out of order resulting in having to wait in line for elevators either direction, especially in the morning. The “destination fee” was pretty worthless to me as I did not want to eat at the hotel and had plans with people for meals. The room was decent but for some reason the pillows were tiny, maybe 12”x12” which just was not very comfortable. I left the do not disturb sign on my door my first day since I was only staying 2 nights and didn’t want house keeping but when I got back to my room they had been in my room, which I thought was strange.

Broken toilet. Was assured that it was “Fixed” 4 different times. Horrible experience to an overall decent vacation. Would have changed rooms had we not been assured each time that they found and resolved the issue.
Horrible stay at this Embassy Suites. 2 of their elevators were down for remodeling. Fine. But when one of the 2 working elevators broke, it was beyond frustrating. Wait times to take the elevator approached a half and hour at times. I had to trek up to the 13th floor twice and countless times down because the wait was so long. It took all day and part of the evening to get the elevator fixed. Then, guests kept spilling condiments in the elevator. This happened 3 times. 2 of the times, it was cleaned up quickly. The third time it was left over night and into the morning hours. In addition, you have to take 2 banks of elevators to get to your room. It was a major pain to take two separate elevators everytime you wanted to go outside. The location was great, that's the only good thing I can say aboit this hotel.
Even on one if the busiest weekends in Chicago (st pattys day) the hotel staff and management handled everything wonderfully! The pool was warm, breakfast was kept full despite the sea of people there. Would definitely stay again!

The room we had was apparently old it could use a new bathroom door. We had a stained towel folded the shower curtain and tub was old. The tub needs to be resurfaced. The elevator broken
The elevator was not working. From 4 elevators it was working just one which is unacceptable for the amount of floors (17) and the amount of rooms and guest they have. It was a long lines to use the elevator and long times of waiting.
Rooms were spacious. Hotel was very clean and conveniently located in walking distance to top attractions in Chicago. Family friendly. Will definitely stay here again.
Two of four elevators were out so made going up and down a lengthy process.. we had 2/6 days where we didn’t get a towel refresh as the housekeeper said she didn’t have any to offer. (Full house). Breakfast is the reason you stay here- it was excellent, didn’t run out and the made to order was fantastic! Pool was warm for the kids but could have used a hot-tub! Along with this- location, location, location was excellent for the St Patrick’s Day festivities. Lastly, we had to change rooms and with leaving a couple items behind- chargers and ice packs- don’t expect to get anything back- as soon as you’re out your supplies don’t exist anymore.
Property was nice, but elevators were not maintained as a set of elevators were down which made it extremely difficult getting to our room and leaving our room as the hotel was booked due to St. Patrick's day.
