Chandler was a gift. He went the extra mile to resolve a booking problem, not of Hilton creation. He gives Hilton a good name. It would be in your best interest to do what ever is necessary to keep him. My I suggest a bonus and/or a promotion.

Loved this hotel! Was worried based on some of the reviews… about the food and elevator and stairs…..but the food was delicious-so good that we ate breakfast daily AND the stairs, should you take those instead of the elevator are no big deal! The decor made you feel like you were in an established old world club. Staff could have not been friendlier. Bikes were a treat too!

Property was pretty. Restaurant was awful. No in room coffee either - hot water pot broken and only offered instant coffee. Also never got my VP perks that is advertised from Expedia for the hotel. Will not stay again.

I enjoyed my stay at the graduate Evanston. The property was older and had character in a sense of elegance. The location was extremely convenient and especially loved the rocking chair front porch.

Our biggest issue was the coffee. I was told coffee was served at 7 am on Saturday. However, staff didn’t get the message! Coffee cups were put out at 7:05 and coffee finally arrived about 10 minutes later. It wasn’t worth the wait! On Sunday, I went to the lobby at 7:00 for coffee and was told on Sundays, coffee wasn’t served until the Sunday brunch at 8:00. The brunch was not complimentary! The staff wasn’t particularly friendly, but other than that, we enjoyed our stay and would go back.
