Traveler photo of Chicago

July 7, 2016

It's within walking distance of Union Station. They offer a free breakfast. And it's a clean, safe environment in a historic building. The artwork is beautiful!! And as a side note, they have the cheapest baggage storage!!

Katie, United States of America

Great location, great neighborhood, good value for the price (for Chicago!) Amenities are pretty basic but what do you really need? Staff was helpful. Beds were comfortable.

Eve, United States of America

Restrooms were clean, bed sheets also clean. The price was fair before all the fees. The location is really close to the Willis tower and downtown so it's possible to walk everywhere.

Martino, Italy

The staff was extremely friendly, the room was comfy, the bathrooms were clean, the location was perfect and the breakfast was delicious. Will definitely be staying here the next time I come to Chicago.

Melvin, United States of America

I like the fact that it was only 34 bucks for a night.

Travis, United States of America

Location, price/value, secure storage in the room.

Pavlo, Ukraine

Everything was great. The rooms very clean, breakfast very good and the staff attentive.

Lucas, Brazil

It was very quiet surprisingly in a hostel environment. The breakfast buffet is nice with options like toast, milk, cereal, juice, eggs, coffee, tea, and many types of sauces. The bed is quite clean and room spacious.

Chuch, United States of America

The location was great. Can walk anywhere and there’s bus stops right around the corner!

Kayse, United States of America

The front desk staff was friendly and more than helpful. Loved the area.

If you are in a shared room, you don't have towels but you have to pay a fee to rent them. They charge you 3% fee for paying with credit card. Breakfast has not a wide variety. The pillow was very uncomfortable and if you stay on the top of the bunk bed you don't know where to put your stuff near you.
Restrooms were clean, bed sheets also clean. The price was fair before all the fees. The location is really close to the Willis tower and downtown so it's possible to walk everywhere.

The only thing to mind is that the hostel is next to a bar which does play music until about 11pm. The view from our room was an alley - this is the sort of place to visit chicago on a budget.
We stayed in a twin room on the second floor (first floor to brits!) and it had everything we needed. There were two common spaces, a common room with games and small kitchenette. We had towels and the bathrooms were always stocked with paper and soaps.

I get that Chicago is an expensive city, but very poor value for money! Cleanliness was very deficient. Room smelled weird and though the sheets were clean, comforter was full or hair. Definitely not cleaned regularly! Bathroom and shower privacy could be improved. Staff was rude: asked for strawberry jam and was told there wasn't any when you could clearly see a box full of it at the bar.
Great location Breakfast was simple but correct.
