The bar on the 27th floor was sold out, so I could not check this out as I wanted to. The observation deck and museum was a nice option on the 30th floor.

Pros (+) The Art Deco
Cons (-) I will be dealing with Marriott's management and not publicly discussing it
Cons (-) No central heat. Unit did not work. Space heater was used to provide heat for the room despite sub 0 temperatures outside.
Pros (+) Trendy. Good design.
Cons (-) They nickel and dime you for everything. Pay extra for WiFi. $20 for a movie. $6 life water on the nightstands. Also the lounge in the lobby is nice but at night on the weekends all the locals get polluted drunk in it.
Pros (+) The Foshay is a boutique hotel with friendly service.There are luxuries everywhere from the time you walk in to breakfast, lunch, dinner and the room amenities.
Cons (-) It would help to have some direction (vernal and/or a sign) when you first walk in that the check-in desk is at the end of the hallway which is not obvious without walking around. Of course, this may be the intent to make you explore the opulence of the lobby with lighting features.
Pros (+) great location, cool historic tower, bars were good too
Cons (-) bedding and (king) mattress very uncomfortable, didn't sleep well
Pros (+) Shower
Cons (-) Bar
Pros (+) Everything was wonderful
Pros (+) Rooms were excellent! Very clean. Bedding very comfortable.
Pros (+) Nice lobby and lounge area. Convenient restaurants either in the same building or walking distance. Museum/ observation balcony.
Cons (-) Our room had poor lighting, furniture had scatches and chips. Paint on wall was cracked in the bathroom. The lounge turns into a club at night with lots of drinking, it's very loud. We had a hard time sleeping due to the number of drunk people there. We had to bring ID to be in the lounge and the bouncers were really rude.
