Our room didn't have a view, as the tree line blocked it all. Room was spacious. I feel they should provide more creamer and sugar in room. We were excited to have breakfast, which you purchase, they do not offer free, but we both felt it was subpar. Menu said mini potato pancakes, they were fried potato crowns. My eggs benedict had an eggshell piece in it. I did get a discount, but I would have rather had an excellent breakfast. It was pretty disappointing.

The room was comfortable and clean. In this survey, it stated that we got a free breakfast but that was not offered. The restaurant is wonderful but pricey. We did receive a $25 gift card for meals but that only paid for half of our breakfast. We would stay there again because it was a wonderful hotel and so convenient to the city. The view of Lake Michigan was wonderful and was in walking distance.
