Superb
Liked: Very calming charming old building. Rooms extra quiet and comfortable. Location was the reason I chose the Knick. Easily walking distant to museums and lakefront.
Disliked: Some aspects of an old building are scary at times. Dark narrow hallways and empty corridors are interesting. I warmed up to the atmosphere and ambiance to the old building and enjoyed my stay immensely.

A lot to recommend
Liked: Great neighborhood with classic architecture, short walk to the lakefront and a shorter walk to a sports bar and excellent Irish restaurant. Room had more amenities than we needed and it was clean. Price made it just right.

I’m disappointed and I feel...
Liked: When I booked with booking.com I purchased a deluxe room that was supposed to have a room with a view of the lake and it was higher up. I purchased for $100 more than the value of the room they gave me. They gave me a standard which was the rate of $79 for the night and I paid $200
Disliked: When I called the staff at the Knickerbocker before I arrived and told them that I purchased a deluxe room and they were giving me a standard. They said that they would give me a room on the eighth floor when I arrived. They gave me a room on the third floor and it was a standard with a rate of $79 for the night and I paid $200.

Good stay, would return
Liked: The location was great. Check in was easy and staff were very friendly. There were good free parking options on the street outside the apartment block.
Disliked: The price felt expensive but that may be due to the time of year and the stage in which we booked.

Cute place to stay. Couple...
Liked: The hotel has great character.The man at the front desk was very nice and great help. Loved the kitchenette and the room design. Just cool
Disliked: Paying $288.00 for a night stay you wouldn't expect to clean out a full fridge full of pungent food that was left from the last people who stayed. I brought food to bring that needed refrigeration and felt uncomfortable putting my food in not knowing how long the food had been in there and that it hadn't been cleaned.Also there was a chair with obvious stains and so I didn't understand from this how it was a $288.00 valuePillows - Id bring my own. Not comfortable and old.
