"SOPHY losing it's shine?"

I love the SOPHY hotel. It's close to the University of Chicago, has a lovely vibe, and friendly staff. I've stayed there several times, but this last time it was severely understaffed. I was hoping to get breakfast--which does not open until 7:30--and no one showed up until 7:50 am. Then there was one server for a 10-15 guests who had all been patiently waiting for 20 minutes. I tried to order room service the next day, but no one ever answered the phone. There aren't a ton of fabulous food places around the hotel, so this was more of a problem then it might have been elsewhere.

"Missed the mark for me."

The hotel is nice, but for me it misses the mark. I appreciate the higher end amenities, but it took the usability of it all out of it. The afternoon drink, the restaurant, the record player with one record in the room. I get it, but it wasn’t for me. It’s almost so cool that it forgets to be practical.

"Perfect Experience"

We loved the boutique feel of this hotel. The hardwood floors in the room were great as well. We were doing a tour of UChicago so this was the perfect location. So many food options locally as well. The staff were very welcoming and spoke everytime we entered and left. Odd note, the lobby smelled amazing everytime!

I love the Sophy! It was the best sleep I had in awhile. I felt rested and energized for the week Shrimp and grits on Sunday were amazing. The new sauce is really good! I enjoyed every bite.
