Seems like a good deal. I already had a reservation reserved (refundable) at the Hyatt for $100/night. I think this is a nicer hotel, right?

Thanks for everyone's tips.

if you're driving, make an attempt to park next door for $22. thru the hotel it's $45, plus "tip"- and the valets literally stand right next to you until you tip them. Hotel was very nice, good for $60, but quite a walk to anything downtown.

have a great stay!

Thanks. We were actually thinking of not renting a car, mainly because of the prices to park and because the rates are ridiculously expensive for a car out of Midway airport. We're going to try relying on public transport; hopefully everything works out!
