It's officially fall as of tomorrow. The J.W. Marriott Chicago wants to help you get into the spirit with some free tasty treats.

Caramel apples are one of our favorite desserts - and no matter how often someone tries to introduce them at other times of the year, we never buy them. They only taste right in September and October. Well, you can get the first one of the year, for free, today. Pastry Chef Kimberly Junior has whipped up a huge batch of apples, covered with sea salt and homemade toffee. All you have to do is stop into the hotel before 4 p.m. today. It's not just for guests - anyone who is a fan of the hotel on Facebook or a follower on Twitter just has to show their phone at the front desk. Voila - instant seasonal happiness.

The J.W. Marriott is located at 151 W. Adams St.
