Graduate by Hilton Evanston

I wish I had been notified that the elevator was out of service. The young lady who checked me in gave me a room on the second floor but when I returned that evening I was out on the 4th floor. I unfortunately have a knee which was in extreme pain after walking all over Downtown. Two elderly women were MORTIFIED that they had to climb stairs to the FIFTH FLOOR, of course the stairwell was thick with humidity and NO air conditioning… This situation for SUCH A LANDMARK is disappointing to say the...

We chose this hotel last minute and we were nervous because there were a couple recent negative reviews. There were 4 of us in our family and couldn't find anything negative to say about the hotel. The only disappointing fact was that the rooftop bar was not open but that wasn't a big deal. Everything was very clean. I actually wiped the floor in our room with a wet, white wash cloth, it was clean! There was no hair in the bathroom from a previous guest. There was no hair in the bed from a...
