The hostel is situated in a charming historical building within a stunning upscale neighborhood. I was captivated by the location, the hostel's ambiance, and the delightful complimentary breakfast it offered.

During my stay, I opted for a private room with a shared bathroom. While the room had a minimalistic design, I felt that it could have been improved with the addition of an extra nightstand, a conveniently located plug, and a bedside lamp. Having these amenities closer to the bed would have enhanced the overall comfort and convenience of the room.

Everything great! Only downside is the breakfast, there is coffee but not much more. Good facilities though if you want to make your own.

Quiet area.

The blankets full of static electricity keeps giving you shocks all the time you move a bit in bed.

Quiet room. Pleasant people. Excellent staff. Safe neighborhood. Clean room.

No place to put toiletries in the shower.

The space was welcoming, clean, and felt very safe. Very basic accommodations, but everything you need is available.

Need heavier/warmer blankets please!

Fantastic Location in the heart of Lincoln Pk Clean Rooms Great helpful staff Wonderful Breakfast Beds Comfortable All in All Fantastic!

All was Great 😃

no return deposit

The room was clean, and the bed comfortable. The staff was very friendly. Overall, it was a good experience.

The room didn't feel very cosy, maybe because of the black paint. The bathroom was very far away from the room itself.

I liked the vibe, good facilities, good staff

Nothing

Great place and very friendly staff! they offered me a discount after I had to stay longer due to my friend having to go to the hospital with an ambulance.

The rooms get very hot

Nothing, the place should be closed down!

After going to sit in the dining room around 10 in the morning and being told it was closed, I noted that there is a sign outside the dining room stating the hours as being open at that time, and suggested they should write this on the sign, and asked if it is in fact closed at that time every day. For this the manager yelled "you're out of here!" and kicked me out. He even called the police which was totally unwarranted but ended up being helpful for me. All agreed that I never raised my voice, and he did not have any story for the police about any policy that I violated. He simply said he wanted me gone and never to return, he did not attempt to provide any justification or even claim that I did something wrong. He was simply having a bad day. Stay at Chicago Getaway Hostel if you want to be jerked around and treated like garbage! The management will use their power to ruin your day if they are in the mood. Better to avoid putting yourself at their mercy. Also - the showers are cold!!

The staff is always friendly. Great location.

Great location at a great price with available parking for those that need it. This has become my go to accommodation for solo travel while in Chicago. Very friendly staff, clean, and particularly quiet for a hostel.

Staff, Breakfast and other facilities at premises.

for tall / long folks bed might be short in dorm. There could be improved lighting in dorm.

Central location, friendly staff, clean and big room

It is cold in the rooms, not enough blankets

The staff is great, breakfast and location is also good

The heating IS NOT ENOUGH OR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY! The bedroom is super COLD, we can feel a cold wind coming from the window, that apparently doesn’t close properly. Is terrible to sleep feeling cold. The bathroom smells really bad! Smells like sewage, even though it’s very clean.
