Last weekend, we stayed two nights at the Renaissance Chicago Downtown Hotel. We loved the location, and would stay there again, even though we had some issues with our room the first night. Somehow, we were assigned to a room with one king and no sofa bed for four people, and we discovered this when we arrived at 11:00 at night. We ended up receiving a discount on our stay, and spent the night in a beautiful club level room with incredible views the second night. My daughters have decided we need to get club level rooms from now on....yikes!
I spent some time researching gluten free options in Chicago on other blogs, and asked my blog readers for advice. One place that was consistently recommended was Do-Rite Donuts, which has several locations in Chicago. I pre-ordered my donuts online a couple of days ahead of time, and my husband walked to their Randolph Street location to pick them up when we woke up.
