My recent stay at the Intercontinental Chicago Magnificent Mile was a mixed bag. The location on the Mag Mile is absolutely perfect, allowing easy access to shops and attractions. However, my room was quite cramped and not ideal for three people. Despite the size, I found the cleanliness and service to be commendable, though my overall experience was marred by some management issues.
