In the picture, it is the one with all the red around the windows. As you can see it is very close to the Eiffel Tower and right on the river. Very close to grocery and metra stops. Has a good workout facility, indoor pool etc. They have crew discounts on services and food but I can't quote them off the top of my head.
They have a crew lounge for airline only. Many airlines stay there (DAL alone has 3 - CVG, JFK & ATL). Standard drill is:
Everybody go get some wine, beer, cheese, pate', bread etc... and meet in the crew room around 5 or 6ish. Drink and tell lies for awhile and round up a group to go out for dinner and more drinks.
Caution: this is one of the hardest overnights to make it out of said crew lounge as you often end up staying there shooting the breeze and just going for more booze runs.
All in all, usually a fun time on this one.
