Props to thereuare for the strategy, did some research and started the bidding at 55. I'm very happy with $72 and would have been ecstatic with $70, but oh well! the range for the express/hotwire deals were $80 to $132 for 4* in river north, any ideas as to which hotels those were? all details below.

i'm a little worried about the alleged construction going on at this hotel, if any of the list amenities aren't available because of the construction i will be upset and bring it upto hotwire. they should have listed the construction in the details!

thanks!

Congratulations on your success!

Looks like a very nice deal for a 4* Downtown property. Hopefully the constructions workers will have off for the weekend and/or not disrupt your stay.

Thank you for sharing your win with the board.

This is an excellent price for this well-located property, which is right off Michigan Ave. It was a Wyndham until Hyatt took it over last Summer.

A couple of suggestions:

1. Ask for a higher floor. I've seen a number of reviews that have talked about street noise. I've stayed in lower floors and higher floors at this property and have never heard anything - in fact, I've always thought this was a particularly quiet hotel. However, to not risk the possibility, I'd ask for a higher floor, if possible.

2. There's a Corner Bakery on the opposite corner, which makes for a good, quick alternative to room service.

Enjoy your stay.
