If you are looking for a convenient place to stay near downtown and not break the bank I highly recommend staying here! It’s 2 blocks from a bus line that can take you downtown and a quarter mile walk to the subway line. Rooms were clean. Free breakfast which can save you a few bucks as well. I’d definitely stay here again!

The staff was very nice and helpful when explaining the key points of the hostile. This was my first time buying a hotel/hostile room for myself and it was very easy and fair for the price. We got an ENORMOUS vegan deep dish pizza before we came and luckily there’s a communal kitchen with massive commercial kitchen appliances and fridges. We also had a mini fridge in our room but it would not have been able to fit that massive pizza. If I were to complain about one thing it would be the blankets because they are thin but if you asked for an extra one they would probably give you one. Overall it was really enjoyable to stay here and we were genuinely excited to come back to the hostile after our day of activity’s.

Nice hostel. Clean, old building, nothing too fancy, but clean, pleasant and a good price!
2.5 / 5.0
This hostel exceeded my expectations. The rooms were impeccably clean, and so were the bathrooms. Breakfast is included, which is always a bonus. And my check-in and check-out experience was easy and quick. I definitely recommend this hostel as a more affordable option, especially compared to other hotels in the area. The zoo is also a 14 minute walk from there! 10/10

Very, very nice property! Friendly service, friendly people. Not much noise. Great signage. The bed was super comfortable - if you like a waterbed, the bunk bed is the next best thing! Bathroom nice and clean, and cleanliness overall, super!

Wonderful location in Lincoln Park neighborhood and economical.
In addition to things like flip flops for shared bathroom/showers recommend bringing sheets if polyester is uncomfortable for you.
Most of the staff are helpful and friendly. We enjoyed our week and walking to the nearby CTA train station. Only about ten minutes. Also short walks to restaurants and great entertainment like Galway Arms and Kingston Mines.

The area where this is located is really nice and walkable, with plenty of resturaunts and shops. The neighborhood is quaint and feels safe. We had one lf the premium rooms and the beds were comfortable. We felt safe there and the staff were helpful, but not like kiss-your-butt nice like at some big name chains, if that makes sense lol.
I highly recommend!

This hotel was neat, the eclectic patrons from all over the world and all ages was cool, different than I expected. The room was amazingly quiet and i loved it. The only down side was the water pressure in the shower, it was hot though, but it dribbled out of the shower head. Other than that it was nice and close to cool things like Lilly's Bar and Prost.

Had a private room in a hostel so appreciated the mix of privacy and facilities. Always people coming and going, but quiet in my room. Location was the best part.

The hostel was a good deal in a great neighborhood. Staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast offering was adequate, but nothing exceptional. It would be nice if coffee and tea was available later in the day, not just during breakfast. The rooms are clean and everything seems well maintained. It would be nice if there were benches or shelves in the shower areas to put your stuff on, who wants to put their stuff on the floor? A small trash can in the shower stalls would also be nice. The bunk beds are metal, and so hard to crawl in and out of, and those little bars are really hard on the feet. Ladders would be nice and don't take up a lot of room. And the upholstery throughout the lobby and dining area is pretty worn out. But having said all that I would stay here again if the price is right.

It was a great spot and really well priced. My only problem with it was the mattresses were pretty dreadful. Felt like a mix between blow up and cheap springs. Woke up pretty stiff but other than that, it is a great spot to stay and it’s located conveniently close to a lot of really cool stuff.

Located in a beautiful neighborhood and close to many forms of public transportation. I booked a solo studio and it was perfect for my little getaway. Clean facilities and friendly staff. I was pleasantly surprised with how nice the property is. Will definitely stay again.

Really loved the location. The room and staff were lovely. I also appreciated that the front door was not left unlocked 24/7 and you had to buzz in after hours (which was always quick). The complimentary breakfast was lacking, but there are plenty of food places within walking distance. We walked over to Colectivo Coffee and it was delicious. Overall a great stay in a great location and we would definitely stay here again!

The bed was creaking too much. Other things were good enough. Make sure to have your own lock for locker.

Definitely recommend this place if you are on budget!

Beautiful place in a great location, with reasonable pricing and great service. But the bunkbeds weren't very comfortable, and there was a lot of noise throughout the night and early morning (loud voices, doors slamming, people using the communal bathroom, etc). I'd stay there again, but maybe try to figure out if some rooms are located in a better/quieter location of the hostel.

For what you pay, it’s a great stay. Don’t expect top tier 5 star hotel stay and you’ll have a pleasant stay. The area is such a great location as well, nestled right in the heart of tons of grocery options, restaurants, cafes, and shopping options as well as bars. The hostel is far enough to be pretty quiet so you don’t hear a lot of bustle from the streets, as it’s tucked away in a residential area within Lincoln park.

Great value stay. I was lucky to have the dorm to myself, but despite that, the place was clean and in a safe part of Chicago. It was located near Lincoln Park and relatively walking distance to Wrigley Field where I watched a Cubs game.

Everything was great except the room is tiny for the price and the breakfast could be better and its just so crowded with little real estate. The location is the best.
