The
hotel
is
extremely
clean,
modern,
and
the
staff
were
friendly,
which
is
why
I
went
with
three
starts
instead
of
two.
I
believe
many
if
not
most
people
stay
here
on
account
of
the
shuttle
service
to
O'Hare,
which
is
widely
seen
as
one
of
the
better
ways
to
get
to
the
airport
and
park.
While
the
hotel
was
lovely,
the
shuttle
was
extremely
inconvenient
for
us,
to
the
point
I
felt
like
yelling.
We
parked
for
an
extended
period
and
rode
the
shuttle
after
initially
parking--on
the
outbound
shuttle,
the
driver
saw
us
approaching
with
our
bags
from
another
doorway
and
proceeded
to
grill
us
in
a
rude
manner
about
where
we
were
coming
from.
I
responded
we
came
from
the
hotel
and
he
challenged
me,
saying
that
he
saw
us
come
from
another
direction.
I
told
him
to
go
check
with
the
front
desk
if
he
was
so
concerned.
Not
a
great
way
to
begin
the
reservation...
We
returned
from
an
international
trip
to
terminal
5.
Read
carefully,
because
if
you
arrive
at
the
international
terminal,
the
shuttle
does
not
automatically
stop
there,
unlike
all
the
other
terminals--you
have
to
call
the
main
desk.
We
were
not
told
this
by
the
first
driver
and
I
had
to
discover
it
for
myself
on
the
hotel
website.
Luckily,
I
had
checked
the
website
and
knew
to
call
once
we
got
our
bags.
However,
the
website
did
not
say
whether
the
shuttle
picked
us
up
where
it
dropped
us
off
(upper
level)
or
the
lower
level.
No
problem,
I
thought,
I'll
just
ask
when
I
call.
So,
I
call,
and
call,
and
call--the
line
is
busy
for
the
front
desk
at
the
hotel
is
busy
for
over
25
minutes.
Strange.
So,
I
call
the
main
Loews
franchise
number
and
they
manage
to
route
me
in--the
woman
is
very
friendly
and
apologetic
on
the
phone.
She
said
she'll
let
the
shuttle
know--I
ask
where
the
shuttle
picks
up
and
she
says
door
5e,
which
is
the
same
door
we
were
dropped
off
at.
I
asked
if
she
knew
if
that
was
upper
or
lower
level
and
she
said
she
didn't
know.
To
make
this
long
story
short,
due
to
the
busy
signal,
the
calling,
and
the
unclear
information
from
the
website
and
person
I
called,
it
took
over
an
hour
and
fifteen
minutes
to
get
picked
up
from
the
terminal.
Not
a
great
way
to
get
off
a
9
hour
flight.
Some
recommendations
for
the
hotel:
list
clearer
information
on
the
website,
including
the
correct
locations
for
pickup
at
the
international
terminal.
During
busy
international
arrival
times,
make
pick-up
at
the
international
terminal
automatic
and
let
visitors
know
this.
Finally,
make
sure
the
people
answering
phones
know
the
answers
to
these
necessary
questions.
