Hotwire Hotel: Help with Chicago area

[ScottyRay]

I am new to the website. I have Pricelined hotels before, but I don't like that I can't specify a hotel with a pool. On Hotwire, if I specify that I want a pool, am I sure to get a hotel with a pool? I was looking at:

The Loop - Millenium Park - Grant Park

4* 2-nights (April 5-6)

Pool

$76.00/day

any ideas as to what hotel that may be? (I'm not dead set on that area, just the downtown area with a pool :))

Thanks for any help!

Yes, if the Pool amenity is listed then the property will have a pool... although it doesn't indicate whether the pool is indoor/outdoor (AaronJB can comment further, but i would think any downtown hotel with a pool would be indoor, especially in Chicago).

Is pool the only amenity listed for this property? If not, what is the complete list of amenities shown (you may need to click the 'See all' link under the amenities to see the full list)

There are (remarkably, given Chicago's cold winters) two or three properties with outdoor pools (I believe the Avenue Crowne Plaza and Doubletree, although those are North of the river.)

I'm seeing a 4* in the Loop w/fitness, pool, restaurant, internet, business, spa - that would be a likely match for the Palmer House - please confirm that you are also seeing the same amenities.
