topher2889 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 Just bid $61 for a 3.5* in River North-NMA after getting turned down for 4 star of same price. Got the Ambassador East Hotel. Looks nice and has positive reviews. It seems a bit far north but is supposed to be a great area. Good Deal! Unfortunately, I forgot to use this PRICELINE link but definitely will next time and you should too.
AaronJB Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 Congratulations on your success. :)As noted in another Ambassador E thread today, this is a nice, very historic (note the photo wall in the lobby of signed celeb photos) property and was recently bought by famed boutique operator Ian Schrager - it will be renovated starting later this year. The area is the Gold Coast, which has quite a bit of nightlife. The hotel itself is on a residential area, but the stores/restaurants start a few blocks South. The Lincoln Park Zoo is about a 15 minute walk due North, while Michigan Ave. shopping is about a 3-5 minute SE.Thank you for sharing your result with the board. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Enjoy your stay.
