What we've verified
You are close to the Chicago Riverwalk on-leash and a short walk to the Lakefront Trail and Ohio Street Beach. No weight limit means big dogs are properly welcome.
Two dogs of any size, no breed limit, but no cats.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.

What we've confirmed, at a glance.
The property.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs stay in pet-friendly rooms. PAWS provides a welcome letter, treats, a bed, bowls and a waterproof mat. Cats are not accepted at this property. A pet relief area is within walking distance.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
