Hilton Chicago/Magnificent Mile Suites
The room was overheated and I could not turn the air system off. I put it on 60 and whether it was AC or heat (my options), the room was always at least 75 but I was able to open a window beside my bed which helped.

Congress Plaza Hotel
We were in room 500, great corner room! I love the old charm. Traffic noise is a bit much and it was a Thursday evening. I imagine a holiday weekend in that area would be pretty noisy. But the bed was comfy! Staff is very courteous. I would stay again, I'll try for floor 12 next time.
