    Expensive valet parking Adding gratuity to everything( take away food)

    Clean hotel, very friendly staff, the only thing that was weird to me was that they add gratuity to everything, even take away food. Valet parking very expensive, 60 dollars a night which is crazy: overall good stay.

    I could literally hear the couple talking at a normal volume, in the next room, as if they were in the same room as I. They heard us talking. We could hear each other so clearly that we carried a full conversation through the wall with the neighboring guests without having to be near the wall. Absolutely no privacy.

    Overall, it’s a great hotel and I would consider staying again if not every room is as transparent to the room next to it.

    Housekeeping never visited; understaffed and staff not very helpful. Not a good value for money.

    Not superb, but good enough location; rooms are large, bed is comfortable, amenities are decent and early check in was possible given the size of the overall hotel, number of rooms.

    I DID NOT like paying for parking ( self parking $30 per night) if I'm parking my own car, it should be free.An incidental fee of $100, no microwave, only 1 wash rag, and the complimentary body soap smell favored a masculine man. All the fees you collect after stating the low price of the room. The room would have been less expensive had I gone through the TEAM rate. Make it more attractive by lowering the fees or the room.

    I liked the service, clean room, and the secure feeling as I slept. The staff was excellent. The bed was comfortable enough to sleep in.

    The beds were horrible. We were there for a dance competition and so many families said the same thing. The ceiling in the bathroom was peeling.

    Location worked for us. The hotel was nice and the staff was pleasant. The room was ok, big Tv.

    Paying for parking. $30 per day or $56 valeparking. However, you can use valeparking for the rest of your stay without additional cost.

    Request was granted, and facility was top shape.

    There was no trash can is the bathroom, which was odd since it seems like a requirement. Also, the breakfast buffet was terrible and overpriced. Staff seemed indifferent about providing good service. Find somewhere else for breakfast.

    The room size was good and the bed was big and comfortable. The room was also clean. The staff at the Local grab and go in the lobby were very friendly and welcoming.

    Breakfast buffet was cold at the time of our stay. (Actually cold. Not just “this is only warm”) This was quickly corrected, however, and our meal was comp’d.

    Nice, central location. Large rooms, comfortable beds. Nice view of the city from our room. (We were on the 25th floor)

    There is no information in the room about food or amenities. When I went to the front desk to ask about when breakfast was served, I was given a lunch menu. Since it was difficult getting food at the hotel, I ordered DoorDash. The hotel would not allow the driver to bring the food to my room and the hotel made me come to the lobby to get my food. When I asked about the food, the person at the desk rudely pointed to the food and walked away.

    It has a great location.

    It's not only the Sheraton - why are all hotel pillows now so thick and heavy - no possibility to sink into them and they weigh a ton when you move them. Because of the pandemic my room was made up only once in 4 days.

    I liked that the staff went out of their way to give me a room high enough so I could see Logan Square (there is construction across the street). The view is my main reason for staying at the Sheraton. Breakfast was very good, I also had a turkey dinner at the bar- and all the service personnel were very nice.
