Hotel Residence Inn di Chicago

Recommended! Feeling of Marriott quality (under their theme ”Residence Inn”). Large fresh rooms with separate living room and bedroom and the possibility to cook yourself if necessary. Micro, large fridge, crockery and hob. The hotel is centrally located in the area known as the ”Loop”. Close to the subway that goes to/from O'Hare airport (blue line), close to Millennium park (Cloud) and Willis tower. The street outside is a fairly quiet street with high-rise buildings opposite. A Seven Eleven is on the street corner and it is close to Mc Donalds. The hotel also has a restaurant with a separate entrance from the street or via elevator from the hotel (the elevator at the far end of the corridor). The street level entrance has a smaller lobby with a caretaker. Says hello sometimes but otherwise doesn't make a big fuss. Elevators take you up to the reception. The staff at the reception are nice. There are plenty of lifts next door which then take you up to the rooms. In the reception there is also a very small kiosk with snacks and some soft drinks, wine. If you continue from the reception you come to larger areas where you can sit down and just outside there is a bar. Even further in are tables and chairs where the breakfast buffet is also served. The breakfast is bigger than in most hotels (though not up to Scandinavian or English standards). The breakfast was nice and the staff refills all the time. The hotel corridors are well-kept and carpeted. We had booked a ”1 bedroom suite, 2 queens” (40 square meters), as the room is called on the hotel's own website, but on hotels.com (Expedia) it is called ”suite 1 bedroom, 2 queens”. The hotel has slightly different rooms and different bed types. Although all with a kitchen and sofa (praise). Remember to have a credit card because the hotel, like most, takes a deposit that is released within a few days. The room feels fresh and well-kept. Goes in light colors, white, light beige, better than many other American hotel rooms which can be very dark. Brown furniture interspersed with light colors on the sofa and red color on armchair. Inside the door is the kitchen, large refrigerator, stove (2 pieces) with fan, kitchen cupboard with crockery, dishwasher, sink, Micro and a bar counter where you can sit and eat. Then the room (the living room part) continues with a sofa, coffee table, armchair, floor lamps, desk and a chest of drawers on which the large flat screen TV stands. From the room there are sliding doors into the bedroom area, which in our room consisted of 2,160 cm beds with accompanying bedside tables. Here, too, there is a flat-screen TV attached to the wall. You can connect the sound from your phone to the TV. The beds are comfortable and there are plenty of pillows. From the bedroom area towards the bathroom there is a wardrobe with iron and ironing board. Opposite mirror and a low dresser. From here is the entrance to the bathroom, which is modern, with white tiles and a beige tiled floor. Lar

the hotel facilities are all good, the view is also very beautiful
