De ce o iubesc oamenii

- ROOF on theWit is a top-rated rooftop bar with panoramic skyline views

Privire rapidă: It's a stylish, high-energy hotel with killer views, but the thumping bass from the rooftop club and nearby 'L' train can be a nightmare for light sleepers.
Evaluat de @wavesofpri: Our weekend staycation at Thewit was everything we needed. Waking up to the Chicago River skyline and ending the night in that huge soaking tub felt so luxurious. If you need a romantic city escape, this is the spot.
