8/10 Very good

Check-in was made very easy by pleasant staff. Our room was very warm at night, but the property was being renovated so that may have been the cause. The area is cozy, with plenty of parking lots nearby.

Good Solo Hostel
Great price for a central hostel. You can take the Blue line to downtown or walk. The Hostel is narrow but good enough for a few nights

I stayed in a private room with a queen bed and it was amazing. The window by the bed opened up and looked out into this incredible courtyard where they had strung up manikins on a cable to look like they were flying

Everything was great. I'd definitely consider staying here again if I'm ever in the Chicago area again. Everyone was helpful and friendly. My only complaint would be about the slow Wi-Fi.
