Just stayed here at the beginning of April and have to say that it is a great property and one of the few that were honoring more than the
normal Hilton benefits - I am Gold and got a great upgrade on a points booking!

Booked a Deluxe room with fireplace as a reward night @95,000 points for Friday night two weeks ago.

Upgrade in the app showed a One Bedroom Suite with Balcony the night before - could select the 26th (highest floor) and received exactly that.

Very nice and large suite, view to the north with a glimpse of Lake Michigan. Suite was in pristine condition and very clean. Only thing
missing was a coffee machine. Short call to the service line and five minutes later a professional Nespresso machine with lots of pods and
water bottles was delivered.

Fitness center is under renovation and in a small room with only a few machines - ok for me as it was not busy.

Location just great for walking the city. No problems having the Honors $50 credit applied for the burger plus tax / service charge I had for dinner.

Very happy overall!

A few pictures - unfortunately forgot to take any of the Suite…
