We stayed in one of the panoramic rooms which was less luxurious than expected because of the sound of the highway and the views being mostly of a parking lot, highway and a pond. I had to sleep with AirPods in to drown out the sound of the highway. The breakfast selection was okay, some mornings better than others. (I especially liked the days with bacon!) Overall the stay was just okay, but I don't think I'd rebook here.

Could've been better…read more.. My wife and I were nearing the end of our ten day upper Midwest road trip, and needed a place to sleep on Friday night before taking a Saturday flight back to LAX from Chicago. I used Hyatt properties exclusively throughout the trip since I have a nice stash of points to use for free nights. I had reserved a stay at the Hyatt Place in Munster, IN, since it was very close to my wife's relatives who we were meeting that night for dinner. However, a couple of days before, received an email from the Munster Hyatt Place that many of their rooms did not have air conditioning because of the storms that had passed through their area the prior week. So ended up canceling the reservation (Hyatt will return your points if you cancel at least 24 hours before your stay) and decided to book something that was closer to where we were going to pick up my wife's mom the next day. The Hyatt Regency Lisle was the closest and also had the best redemption (at only 6,000 points). I was surprised at the low cost for a Regency, but figured it must be the location. We ended up checking in late, around 10 pm. Since we had to catch our flight the next day, we had to bring all of our luggage and various knick-knacks that we've been purchasing (and dumping into the back seat of our rental car) and bring it all upstairs. There was nobody out in front (which wasn't a big deal), but absolutely no luggage carts anywhere to be found. The lobby was empty, with one lone guy manning the check-in desk. He checked us in, told us we had a room on the 3rd floor. Hyatt sends out surveys after visits, and one of the questions asked if the guest had been recognized as a loyal member of Hyatt. The only times it did not happen during our road trips, was at the two Hyatt Regencies, this one included. Built in 1988 and last renovated in 2012, with 317 rooms and 13 floors. Thus elevators are a must. Well, two of the three elevators were out of service, and from the look of the sign, seemed like for a while. It has enough meeting spaces and ballrooms to host large events. And there was definitely night events happening, with the low price of rooms and it being a Friday night. There was no bottled water offered, so my wife went to the ice maker to get ice to melt down for water the next morning. We also spent a bit of time packing our bags, making sure we didn't hit the 50 lb limit (I had purchased beer to bring home so it was a bit of a challenge, but we made do). The room was definitely an older style, but the room and BR was clean with a shower/tub combo. It was meant to be a place to get in/out for an overnight stay, and figured I had done alright. There is no complementary breakfast at Regencies, so decided to checkout (via the app) and leave by 9am. I should have guessed what would happen...with only one elevator working, and people all trying to get to the lobby to leave, each elevator stopping on the 3rd floor was already full by the time it reached us (since there were 10 floors of people above us). After waiting 10 plus minutes, letting 2 elevators leave without us, was determined to get onto the 3rd one. It was full and a young women said 'Oh no, there is no room'. Yeah, I was a bit of an ass in making space for my wife and our bags (didn't ask..just told the people in front, "No..We are getting on...please make room). People were not happy, with some smartass in the back grumbling..."it's only the 3rd floor...you could have taken the stairs"...lol...pretty sure he didn't have any luggage. Luckily the elevator didn't break down with all the people, and we got out of there as fast as possible as soon as the door opened. Reading reviews, it was clear that the elevator situation has been bad for a while now...should have read Yelp before making the reservation. Lesson learned!

Although there were umbrellas, the rain was still dripping over the tables, but our server kept a positive attitude even though we weren't able to change our seats to be inside. My dad enjoyed his skillet, and I got a panini, and I'm amazed by the huge portion sizes. The panini was good, with juicy chicken and a delicious subtle apricot spread. The fries are huge as well, and super crispy. Buttermilk's pancakes are probably my favorite pancakes, as they are light, soft, fluffy, and subtly sweet. This was a good spot for a casual brunch with family.

We were not sure if there was a change in management or ownership. There were quite a few vendors explaining their machinery and products to the 2 gentlemen who were working. As with any new business, there are growing pains; forgotten utensils, had to ask for the check, minimal things that will come with practice. But they tried hard to please and we give them kudos for their efforts. We will most definitely come back.

Both dishes were awesome. He promised that it would be the best pizza we ever tried and my husband now wants to eat one every day. He's planning on stopping on his way home from work for pizza, it's that good. The salad was well made with the dressing in the side. My uncle is Greek, and I think he'd approve of this salad. We ate outside as it was beautiful evening, but went onsite and it is cute, clean, and welcoming. A great space! We'll be back for more pizza, and to try the gyros, pasta and crepes. The quality is outstanding and the pride they have in delivering a great product is apparent. A bonus is being able to take a nice walk by the Prairie pond after dinner. It's a perfect date night idea!

That I finally visited this place was part of a very special series of moments. I basically hated high school, (JSMorton East-Cicero, IL) but not for the reasons you might expect. Mostly boring teachers and stultifying curriculum. I couldn't wait to get out of there so I could continue with my education. There were bright spots, though. One was my sophomore English Teacher Gus Jackson. Erudite, witty, respectful, and in tune. He allowed us to be smart-asses in class as long as it was based in dignified wit. And we actually LEARNED SHIT because of him. What a concept! A brilliant man, whom I never forgot. I attempted to keep in touch with him but after a while he was lost in the sea of moving experience like so many bittersweet factions of our lives. Imagine my surprise when he recently appeared in the "meet and greet" line at one of our concerts 53 years after my graduation. To say I was stunned is woefully inadequate. I jumped up, tearfully, sped around the table to give him the warmest embrace of genuine admiration and respect I could muster. I saw in his beguiling smile and expressive eyes he was glad to see me too! He said he saw my name in the local paper in an article about our appearance, and decided to come to the show. We made plans to have breakfast, and Gus selected this place. They could have put Purina Kibble and flat Coke out to eat and drink and I would have been overjoyed, just to sit and reminisce with my old friend. But the food was GREAT. I had a Greek Omelette which was total yum, and the Coffee was superior. And I'm not being kind just because of the reunion. I would have thrown 4 stars for this place in any case. Do eat here, if you can. I often still have occasion to drive past the Morningside, but now I do so with a warm smile, and a memory that will linger...
