Cool experience staying in the dorm room area. Everyone there were pleasant. Carlos was very helpful, informative. The downstairs area clean, quiet for completing my computer work. Management was very responsive with key lock issues. The place is well run and well located.
Staying at a hostel was new for me. It's a different experience. Everyone on the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The others staying there friendly as well.
Great hostel like property in Wicker Park. I stay here for business as it has a great business center. I have experienced both the dorm and individual rooms. Every time I have come it has been very clean, I get quick responses from management if I have an issue (door code not working) and most everyone I have met here have been friendly.
Location is awesome. Walking distance to a Michelin star restaurant, great small pubs nearby, Jewl-Osco, Barnes and Noble, etc.
Always very clean.
Was A Great Stay .. great room .. great space .. Amazing Staff Very welcoming and Approachable .. the area of where the hostel is situated is a great area Great friendly Lively Community forward Area
The place is very clean has all the amenities people staying there were also very respectful of quiet hours was overall a great first experience in a hostel
This place was really cool. The other people staying didn’t cause any trouble. It was on street parking but was able to find a place on the street behind the property. There’s rooftop access where you can go out and smoke. The vibes were just on point for our first time visiting Chicago.
Staff was friendly and accesible at any time I needed something. The living space and comunal are was clean.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great area, we felt safe in the hostel and walking back at night. The free street parking was nice as well. Staff and other residents staying were very friendly.
We couldn’t get the bathroom shower head to turn on. Also, we stayed in a private room in the summer and although they provided a mini A/C unit, it didn’t help the heat at all during the day. You could feel the A/C in the kitchen and hallway but unfortunately our room was just facing the sun. Luckily the owner was super kind and brought us a fan. Our room did cool down at night.
Overall we needed a quick, affordable stay and this was a good option in the city.
It was a really nice eclectic spot. It was full of people from all over the world, and I was greatfull for the conversation. The spot is centrally located and close to everything. Thanks for the wonderful stay and see you next time I'm in Chicago.
The accommodations and service was wonderful. The staff was amazingly friendly the facilities were very clean and the working space was great! While in Chicago I will surely stay here again.
