Nice facilities. One downside is there are just a few options for food in the convention center and around the block.

Best food around is in Chicago.
If you are from out of town turn on radio station WBBM 780 a.m. and listen to the weather traffic it could make for happier plans

Tried calling their office multiple times and I could not reach anyone. I have left multiple voice messages for a callback / email with no luck and I tried one time to call down the list of their marketing team and no answer.
Totally bad company.

My wife and I visited family in Chicago in September 2016. While there we drove to Wisconsin and went through numerous toll booths paying cash at each one in our rental car. On arriving home the rental car company (Alamo) sent a bill from the Highway Administration Toll stating we had driven through four toll booths. We then had to pay more as the exit toll booths have no receipt mechanism to prove we had already paid (Even though the gate will not rise unless you pay). Bottom line, there are many nicer place to visit than Chicago and their corrupt political system

With very little money and good budgeting he was able to manage it. But he got his bicycle stolen when visiting the Willis tower, it was locked up with a heavy duty chain. Here is the best, when calling the police they told him to go home and wait for a call. As a tourist you
