There have been hiccups along the way but Adam and Sam and Jim have been nothing short of amazing to myself and staff. While there have been a lot of calls for service (not because of their workmanship) they have always been responsive and kind and upbeat when they arrive and fix our issues. Thank you so much Colley!

The removal and replacement of the piston was wisely planned in advance and the part pre-ordered for custom manufacture. Colley's technicians neatly mustered their tools and materials, protected the carpeting, safely blocked the work area, and gave a progress report. The elevator inspection was also wisely planned. Fortunately, there were no problems with the pit or the piston hole, and this could only be verified once the crew was down there and extracting the old piston in sections. The happy result was the elevator was back in service well before the best-case estimated completion date! Thank you, Colley Elevator!!!

They are horrible people to work with. Not to mention the elevator situation, they are constantly out of service or broken with no attention on it from the staff. They lure you in with the "cheap rent" but then screw you over with the endless hidden fees. You're better off spending your money anywhere else. Don't ignore all the negative reviews, this place is as bad as it gets and should have 0 residents here. 0/10.

After many many unanswered calls and emails, an appointment was set up and the tech arrived - late- and within 5 minutes said the problem was an electrical issue to the power source. We called ComEd - no electric issue from the line to the meter. Called 3 electricians - no electrical issue to the elevator. We need an elevator technician. Called back to Essential. Mary Ellen is extremely unhelpful. Sent emails to understand the problem, asked for a phone call to get better explanation of the problem. NO CALL. Had to hound and hound to get any information - Still nothing. FInally caught Mary Ellen, and she told me that she would "See what she could do" - They want me to pay for the tech coming out - but REFUSE to tell me what the problem he claims he found - they will not stand behind their work and meet with us and the electrician to tell us what they feel is wrong. I will pay for service when the service is rendered - but if you can't stand behind your claims and 4 companies tell us that the problem is not what you claim - YOU should NOT be in business.

One of the coolest things I've ever seen starts the way most fairy tales do:…read more "Once upon a time many holidays ago, Santa trudged his way through Chicago snow. He made his way to Trump Tower, but without a chimney deliveries took hours." The good elves at Trump Chicago wanted to give Santa a helping hand so they created a "slight mess" in order to "build The Gingerbread Express!" Daniella Rinaldi is the Pastry Sous Chef at Sixteen who thought of the idea for The Gingerbread Express and she has only been there for two months! What started out as a joke between Daniella and her peers turned into an awesome realty--"the first and only gingerbread elevator in the world." "I wanted people to go in and feel like they were in another world. How often do you get to feel like that?" Rinaldi shared when I asked her about the Gingerbread Express. Not enough, was my response. People visiting the Michelin-rated restaurant on the sixteenth floor will have the most enjoyable journey to the North Pole! You can smell the sweetness as soon as you enter the lobby. The Gingerbread Express is edible and made from: 308 lbs of gingerbread dough 942 gingerbread bricks 222 lbs of frosting 178 lbs of sugar 103 lbs of chocolate I now know what drew Hansel and Gretel to the witch's cottage. I just kept riding the Gingerbread Express because I couldn't get off. Luckily, Trump International Hotel & Tower and Sixteen do not have any witches to worry about. Only great service and fantastic food will greet you upon your arrival. On your ride up--or down--you will have a fantastic view of the Kitzbuhel Alps in Austria while singing along to the festive music. You might want to admire the custom train speeding by over your head! Or, you can warm your hands by the faux fire in the fireplace. The best and most important thing about the Gingerbread Express is that it is dedicated to the patients and families at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and you can leave your donation at the front desk because the Holidays are really about loving, sharing and giving! Whatever you decide you must stop by and just experience the holiday magic the amazing Food & Beverage team created. You will not regret it! And I went back to my hotel happily ever after--and full.
