When I go back I'm going back to CQ
Review From: Michele Newport, MI, Jun 9, 2008
My friend and I stayed for 2 nights over the St. Patrick's Day weekend and were thoroughly happy with our accomodations. We were 2 blocks from the Orange Line which we took to Midway Airport for only $2. This, in comparison to the $27 cab fare we paid to get to the CQ! The man at the front desk was SO helpful. From getting us a 2 twin bed room when we were booked for a Queen (he explained to us that the hotel didn't get that request from hotels.com but if we called within 24 hours after booking it they could reserve us the accomodations we required) to explaining to us how to get to the airport via the Orange Line, and to take the 29 State Steet bus to Navy Pier to the Flower Show. Our room had an incredible view of the river and was convenient to the Magnificent Mile though we ended up shopping along State Street. Just diagonally from the CQ was a White Hen grocer, 3 blocks away was a cozy diner for breakfast and a Marshall-Fields were we received a 15% discount card for visitors to Chicago. CQ turned out to be the perfect location. It was clean and comfortable, too. Going back next week!
