“The University of Chicago finds its only hotel partner here, with a design catering to campus life and the Hyde Park neighborhood. Free shuttles ease access to local attractions, and the indoor pool and fitness center add appeal for families and business travelers alike. I noted some mentions of inconsistent service, making it a place where location and amenities stand out more than flawless execution.”
