Introduction I took the CTA from O'Hare to the hotel - one hour via the Blue Line, with a change (at Jackson) to the Red Line.  The entrance (on East Chestnut) is easy walking distance from Chicago stn. Reception was nice & quick.  Room on the 10th floor was nothing special but reasonable @ $100 - not bad for mid week in downtown Chicago.  In the am, I walked 1.5 blocks to the gym at the Westin Hotel.  After, enjoyed the complimentary breakfast (7-10) at Ditka's - cereal, bagels, scrambled eggs, has browns, muffins, coffee, tea & OJ.   Overall I give it a 3/5 rating - an affordable stay option on the Magnificent Mile.
