Yes,the rooms are very small,but we weren't in Chicago to hang out at the hotel. Location was excellent,2 blocks from the Hard Rock Cafe and ESPN Zone,and about 8 blocks from the John Hancock tower(my favorite). Staff was helpful and very friendly. We arrived at around 11:00 AM not expecting to be able to check in so early but our room was ready with no problem. Bed was very,very comfortable. Free breakfast was ok,but the lines could be VERY long. Skipped it the last day we were there because the wait would have been ridiculous. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again because of location alone,good package deal on Orbitz for flight/hotel.

This hotel has a great location near Mag Mile. Also near many good restaurants. The room was a bit small for 4 people (2 adults and 2 children), but it was clean and in good condition. The free breakfast offered more food than I had expected, and it was very good. The parking garage was very close, as well. Our hotel stay was a very nice experience. No complaints!!

If I were Holiday Inn I would be embarrassed to have my corporate name associated with this hotel. I see reviews where a major renovation happened recently, if that's true it's going down hill fast. It is in a quiet neighborhood, but parking is non existant even to check in, I had to circle the block 4 times waiting for a tour bus to unblock the 2 space loading zone in front of the hotel. The lobby is deceptive in its modern appearance. The carpet in the halls on the room floor was stained and horribly dirty. The rooms are smaller than college dorm rooms, I've never stayed in a hotel room this small before in my life. While the bathroom looked like it had new features and there was a flat screen TV on the wall, the overall decor was a throwback to the 60's right down to the puke green fabric headboard that covered the one wall above the bed. The bathroom sink didn't have a working drain plug, and the shower curtain was covered in mildew. Self park is virtually non existant, and the vallet is exhorbitant at 50/night.

I went to the taste of Chicago; saw the fireworks from the observatory; walked up and down the different streets; ate a Chicago dog; bought souvenirs. This was a good trip and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

The room and service were excellent. My husband couldn't have found a better hotel. It is close by, easy to get to, lots of restraunts near by. The hotle is newly remodeled and looks excellent. Also we felt safe in the neighborhood at night!

The hotel is in a GREAT location and is new and clean. It was the smallest hotel room we've ever seen, but it was fine for two of us for a weekend trip. The staff was extremely professional and courteous, and the breakfast was good. We would definitely stay here again!

The location was great. I ordered a smoking room with a roll away bed. When I went to check in I did not get either. Asked for what I ordered and was told sorry they didn't have the room available and were sold out for the weekend.

Very clean rooms, excellent service. Staff is courteous and professional. Rooms are a bit small, however they are great for the price and the location is unbeatable. Minutes to Michigan avenue and the major attractions. Will definitely stay their again!

The hotel provided all the information we needed to get around Chicago. We went there to shop, sight see, and see a show. The location was great. We walked to every thing we needed to. And when we got tired the trolley system picked us up and took us the rest of the places. It was also a nice surprise to have a hot breakfast in the morning to start the day.

Conveniently located near Magnificent Mile area. Parking was $34 for 24 hours. Clean and comfortable rooms with a friendly staff. The hotel is conveniently located and within walking distance of the Magnificent Mile area.

We stayed there during New Years Eve. The staff was great, from Front Desk to housekeeping. The rooms were small but had everything you needed. The rooms were very clean and modern. The breakfast was great. I really was blown away by the very kind and professional doorman. I would come back.

Getting to the room is a chore. The hallway to my room was at max 3 feet. If you have bags it is a tight fit. The cleaning cart blocked the entire hallway, which could be a fire hazard. Oh, one of the elevadors wasn't working, and I'd heard one of the staff say that they break down all the time. So if you don't mind climbing 16 stories, go for it. When I first walked into the room, I was shocked at the size. WOW, they are small. The room on the top floor was tiny!!! There were 2 double beds that barely fit in the room. They had a great flat LCD TV, because a regular TV would not have fit into the room. No desk, no chair. I liked the sink in the bathroom, but again very small. The windows were open so mesqitos were in the room...someone didn't know how to latch a window. I ended up killing all the pests. Watch the valet, most of them are good, but the one they had Saturday morning let a luggage carrier run into a beautiful Mercedes. Front desk people were friendly, but knew nothing about Chicago. I knew where to go for food, and they didn't. They didn't even know who Harry Caray was or where his resturant was located (it's about 8 blocks away, easy walk). Make sure you take everything. I forgot some nice leather sandles in my room, which were never found. When contacting the hotel, no one tried to help. I left messages, I called at least 5 times and no one was helpful. For the money, you can stay at a place called the Fairmont that is outstanding.

I spent 8 nights at the Cass Hotel:the first 3 nights,it was impossible to sleep because of the dozen of children(from Ohio) screaming in the corridor,slamming the doors,partying 6 or 7 by rooms,out of control.Where were the parents or the teachers?Of course,when I complained at the desk,they said they will send someone,nothing was done,how could they!! When the kids left,the hotel was adequate:small rooms but clean and well decorated and equiped,good location.It is regrettable that the management does not care more for its clients comfort by avoiding those disturbing out of control groups.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Room was small but not a problem. The rooms were pretty small, but we didn't stay in it much anyway. The free breakfast was convenient to start the day. The staff was very helpful with restaurant suggestions and directions to attractions. I would stay there again.

This is one of the best hotels I have stayed in while in Chicago everything from the staff to the room and the advice from the door man on where to eat was the best I have ever gotten and being only 2 blocks of the mile is the best. The staff goes out of their way to help you with any questions. The staff here is one of the friendliest in Chicago. I will be back.

I met my sister and mother in Chicago for Mom's Day. This was not our first choice of hotel and we were kind of worried about it after we read more of the reviews. So, we went with a positive attitude and it was better than expected. My sister said it was like being on a cruise ship...very tight in the two bed room. We did not spend much time there, too much to see. There wasn't much space to store things, but we improvised and got creative! (Hint: the chairs under the desk are useless and if you turn them around under the desk, a suitcase fits under there nicely.) The beds were EXTREMELY comfortable!!! The bathroom was rather tiny...but it worked just fine. The decor is beautiful and there was lots of room in the breakfast area for seating. Great breakfast. Service to get refills on these things was SLOW. The creamer ran out and it took forever to get the staff to refill. The doorman was very helpful as was the front desk staff. Word of caution, the 3rd floor is smoking. We were in 204 (nice room away from the elevator and great view of the front of the building), and when we returned one evening, it smelled like someone had smoked IN OUR ROOM!! If you are sensitive to this, be careful. We kept our window cracked while we were out to prevent the smell again. A non-smoking hotel would be great! Also expect long elevator waits if you are on the higher floors. All in all, we would probably stay there again. The location is AWESOME! Close to everything!!! Great restaurants around and several bars worth trying out. Easy walk to Hancock center and Water tower place. Excellent weekend!
