What are your thoughts on the properties within the main city? (Excluding HR Chicago as I know the property itself is quite old and has its own issues) I know with new partnerships there’s more than a half dozen nearby.
To try to answer your question:
No, I don't think that properties in Chicago are "better" just because HQ is nearby. There are *more* Hyatt properties than would be expected because HQ is nearby. And they tend to be (though definitely not exclusively) a little bit on the older side.
