St Mary Of Nazareth
Aug 13, 2008 by Maria from Tillett

Overall Rating: 1

• Nothing.
• The birthing unit.

“Not a friendly place. This is a Polish hospital and if you are not of Polish descent do not bother coming here. The OB unit seems rushed and I felt like a number not a person. The nurses are not nice and just did not seem to understand that I have pain. I had a c-section and they told me that by the third day, I should not have any pain. I had surgery of course I am in pain! Everyone handles pain differently but they just did not understand that (or believe) that my pain was there.”

Millennium Park
May 29, 2008 by Ramesh from Chicago

Overall Rating: 7

• Refreshing to see most of nice buildings.
• Not many things to see.

“Cute little park. Not much to see. You will enjoy more when there are programs in the auditorium. Good if you have at least 2 hours of time to spend.”

John G Shedd Aquarium
May 29, 2008 by Ramesh from Chicago

Overall Rating: 5

• Wales show.
• Not many fishes and not arranged properly. More hype.

“It is good but not great. Wales show is good and also 4D theatre. Entrance price is more than it's worth.”

Mercy Hospital And Medical Center
Jul 23, 2007 by Elena from Munich

Overall Rating: 3

• Friendly nurses.
• Do not know where to start.

“I would not recommend anyone to go this hospital. I have visited the ASCO Annual Meeting and needed an emergency treatment. Although the Hospital is in close distance to the McCormick Place and one would think that they frequently have non-American patients, they are not prepared at all on e.g. how to handle billings for Europeans. They ask for cash deposit, for which one never receives a receipt. The costs for the medical treatment one received separately; from Miami (also these people are really not helpful). Months later my bill is still not sorted out. The email address indicated on their website is not working and if you contact them by phone there is obviously no one in charge. The only positive point was that the nurses were quite friendly. Otherwise, can not recommend this hospital at all.”

Chicago Trolley Company
Jun 7, 2007 by Godinez from Altamont,TN

Overall Rating: 10

• Great Tour Guides and overall staff.
• Nothing.

“Now I know why they call Chicago the Windy City, because being up top a Chicago Double Decker Bus not only do you get a great view of the city but you also get a taste of the wonderful wind that Chicago is famous for and a fabulous Tour. My family and I visited Chicago during the Memorial weekend. Our tour started a the Navy Pier stop, my family and I were mesmerized by the bright colors of the Chicago Trolley bright red ticket booth and how professional the ticket agent looked and handle other customers in front of us. When we approach the ticket both the ticket agent greeted us with a big smile that sold us automatically. They were very polite and informative; they answer all of our questions and new a lot of the service that they were selling. They told us about the great gift you get with the purchase of their tour tickets; which was music to my children ears to here that they would get a free bag of the famous Garrets Popcorn and a Chocolate Hershey bar with their ticket. They also told us about their great Ethnic Tour, two tours for the price of one what a deal. There was another tour company that was next to them "Grey Line" but they looked scary and mean and instead of inviting they actually scared customers away with the "I do not want to be hear" look in their face and their unwelcoming ticket booths. Of course we went with the bright company Chicago Double Decker co. We took the Tour aboard a London Style Double Decker Bus when the bus approach the stop the driver and tour guide came down and introduce themselves to all the customers that were waiting. We felt right at home with our Tour Guide he was funny and informative. Our tour was full of Chicago history as well as Chicago comedy. The best thing is that Walt like other tour guides that work for this company really enjoyed their job which made us enjoy even more our Tour. We had lunch at the great millenniums park were we also learned that this same company Double Decker Co. Just open a new retail store where you can get all your Chicago souvenirs as well as tickets to take this great tour. If you are going to be in Chicago for more than one day I do recommend their three day pass you get a free t-shirt plus the other great gifts. Overall I truly recommend this tour company our experience was one of the best.”

Our Lady Of The Resurrection Medical Center
Nov 4, 2006 by Alexandria from Niles,Illinois

Overall Rating: 1

• Nothing.
• All.

“Kept flat on a gurney-Needed head raised. X-rays of broken upper arm were unusable to the doctor. When told I needed to go to the ladies room, I was told I could go on my way out, and that was before all the x-rays and examination. Not admitted to the hospital but told I could go to a doctor in the suburbs on Monday and this was Friday night. They never called my doctor to tell her I had broken my arm. I shudder when I simply drive past the place now. Ambulance would not take me to my hospital, said they had to take me to the nearest one that wasn't too busy. Ravenswood was out of business, and Swedish Convenient was too busy with the overload because of Ravenswood being closed. I think I would have been better treated at a Veterinarian's office. Alexandria.”

Museum Of Science & Industry
Jul 11, 2005 by Phyllis from Carlock

Overall Rating: 10

• Lots of hands on things to do that seemed to stand up to the children-all children and some rough adults.
• some items in the idea factory were not working and the boys worked very hard at them before realizing that it was broken.

“Took two boys, 8 and 9 years old. They loved it and wanted to go back the next day. They offer free tickets for the next day and we were able to get them and did go back for the next day (another 6 hours). This time we toured the Sub and got into the coal mine. Food selection was very good and we were able to get tables each time. Clean restrooms and the people working there were so friendly and helpful. Great experience.”
