Great location and decent value.
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.

Hidden gem in beautiful area of Lincoln Park. Decent free breakfast (eggs, cereal, waffles, some fruit, yogurt). Friendly and helpful staff. We had a two-bunk private room with shared bath. Bathrooms super clean. Bedroom efficient. Comfy but squeaky beds. Would stay here again!

Great hostel in a beautiful and convenient area of Chicago. We had a private room on the third floor with private sink and toilet. The shower was down the hall and clean and with adequate privacy and availability. Towels provided. Breakfast had sufficient variety and choices, but for picky or hearty eaters may not satisfy. Room was clean with individual a/c. Bed comfy. Staff friendly and helpful. TV in common area. Limited parking onsite at $32 per night. Street parking tight and I mean tight! 6 block walk to elevated train and we enjoyed the historic tree lined streets.
