the gym is incredible. The biggest facility I've ever seen. The problem is the noise level of the hotel on the 4th floor, directly above the fitness center. You can hear weights dropping a classes being taught at all hours of the day. So bring your earplugs!

Clean room but rather antiseptic. Definitely caters to the business crowd who don’t stay in their room much. No comfortable seating in the room and surrounded by gym members everywhere else. Very odd hotel stay for two older women who wanted fine dining, relaxing bar for drinks and $330 night amenities.

Hi Heidi. thank you for feedback. We would like to apologize for not meeting your expectations fully during recent visit. Hotel is anything but ordinary and we do not fit classic hotel mold you have been looking for it seems. We apologize if property description wasn't clearly communicated to you at the time of booking.

Arrived early. Recognized that it was prior to check in. Future- either state hard check in or fee. Wrigleyville accommodations minimally allow for drop off of luggage with reservation, no additional fee. First time reserving outside Wrigleyville for a game. Not too impressed. Overall hotel was fair.

Gym and pool areas are luxurious compared to typical hotels. There's a lot of noise when in the hotel room, they provide ear plugs but it would be better to fix the problem rather than cover it up.

My visit started with a stellar introduction to David, who greeted me by name as I approached the front desk. Don’t know how he knew my name but that was a very nice touch :-) I loved this place in every way. I just wish I had time to do more of the fitness classes and yoga. The spa, steam room and sauna was a daily regime. And the outdoor pool was so nice and warm. Both the indoor and outdoor pools were fantastic! I’m home sick already. All staff were great and the spa team top notch. It was so great I extended my stay! I’ll be back.

I stayed here for 4 nights Aug 2023. The hotel and gym are in the same building with the entrance and elevators and very crowded with people coming to work out at all hours of the day and evenings. The whole building smells like sweat. The outdoor poor was highly crowded and full of kids to the extent that the water appeared cloudy. Each time I tried to swim (including early morning and end of the day when it was “adult time” I kept getting strands of hair wrapped around my fingers. It is the dirtiest pool I have ever personally experienced. The room itself was nice, no complaints. Staff interactions were either great or awful. On the day that I was checking out I had called downstairs requesting a late checkout because of being on a work call 11am-12pm (checkout time is 11am but can be extended to 2pm). After this I had 2 maids come into the room and 4 calls from the reception desk all during my 1hr Zoom work call to ask me when I was checking out. When I complained about the 6 interruptions, the front desk guy tells me over the phone verbatim “We are trying to run a business.” It was so incredibly inappropriate I could not wait to get my things and check out. What an awful way to end what was a mediocre stay at best. This place is trying to do it all, be a gym, a hotel, be cool and trendy but really the experience is like being away at an overnight camp at a crowded smelly gym with a disgusting pool and a mixture of pleasant and rude staff members.

Maybe if you have kids. Not a relaxing stay for 2
At check in we were handed room keys and a piece of paper with all the amenities listed on it for the club. No information was provided for hours of anything or the guest policy etc. We were also never offered a tour/orientation or anything to the property and it’s a maze to find the locker rooms and where to go. How to lock lockers would have been nice. I felt like hotel guests are treated second-rate here to members. We were woken up every morning at 6 AM ish by loud banging (from the gym?) and our room basically shaking. The pillows were awful. Coffee was awful in the room. No room service available. The pool area was so crowded with people and kids all weekend you could barely find a chair. Front desk staff had to seek a manager for every question we asked. Basic questions. Also an elevator was broken the entire stay and being on the 5th floor meant waiting forever to get to/from the lobby. We won’t be staying here again. Maybe if you have kids it’s worth the price, but not for us.
