Just OK in comparison to other similarly priced hotels. Big roomie bathroom and bedroom. Space to walk around for two people without feeling cramped.
Didn't like: Cafe very overpriced. Not a good value for a convenience meal.

Good time was held by all ! I stayed repeatedly at Millennium Knickerbocker Chicago over the years and always return to it because of the excellent location at the Gold Coast. I love the Martini Bar, as well. The stay got more expensive lately, but nevertheless it is a great place to stay. The proximity of the Oak Street Beach is a plus in the hot summer.
Didn't like: The beds are too soft for my taste, and the rooms need a timely upkeep if something gets out of order (i.e. we put the loose sliding closet door back on its track).

Reasonably priced hotel in superb location. The location was great, convenient to the Michigan Avenue buses, close to the lake and beach. The staff was hospitable, friendly, accommodating, and competent and professional. The bathroom was updated with large shower and new, modern, facilities. It was a comfortable stay overall.
Didn't like: The hotel needs a bit of freshening up or general updating, such as carpeting, room.
