I've been to lots of hostes, but this is definely The best hostel I've ever been. Great staff, great amenities, clean, cheap and safe. My home in Chicago :)
Jenny DavisAugust 12, 2012Never stayed in a hostel until now.. best decision I've made in a long time. Cheap, clean, and friendly. Late night hang outs in the lobby with people from all over the world make this trip memorable.
Tyler KalistaDecember 8, 2016Unload first then park vehicle on lakeshore drive. Its one of the only spots to park for free. 15 minute walk, get used to walking. Room did not have. TV Elevator is slow. Good overall. Great location- ANDRE OOIAugust 24, 2014The free breakfast is definitely worth it. Great location. Friendly staff and plenty of activities. Very cosy common area and they even have a grand piano in the hall.
Alaina Definitley SpatesJuly 26, 2017Accommodations are OK but if you stay longer than a week and mark your stuff properly in the fridge, expect your stuff to be thrown away for absolutely no reason. Cheers
AlexOctober 26, 2017Very cool hostel. The only minus during staying that was cold in the room bcs it was not heated all the time, but I think it because of weather change! I do recommend the place
Andrea GallegosAugust 5, 2017Decent place for the price. 10min walk to the Fullerton station. 3min walk to the 22 and 36 bus stop which take you to the loop too. AC in rooms is way too cold so make sure to pack warm PJs.- Reside LivingJune 7, 2012Great hostel in a great Chicago neighborhood, just 20 minutes from downtown Chicago. The best part? They're part of the Reside Family! Reside residents: Get 20% off private rooms.

Tenielle FitzjarraldJune 10, 2018The decor is amazing. Not thrilled to find that the bathroom had snot all over the wall in the private room. The floor also hadn't been swept.- Samantha HartmanSeptember 12, 2013Great location and price, very clean, overall good experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Eric O'ChenAugust 10, 2013Great hostel. Clean helpful staff great location. Worth getting the private room.
Katie PetroskiAugust 16, 2010It's worth the extra investment for a private room, but that aside, the location is fabulous, staff is helpful, bathrooms are mostly clean, wireless often doesn't work. I'd definitely be back.
Cisa BarryMarch 13, 2012This will definitely be our go-to housing option from now on when we're in Chicago!

Shawn WoodmanJanuary 1, 2012This is the first time I've ever stayed in a hostel and I'll be back, great place!
Fer CSeptember 8, 2014Cuartos cómodos y amplios, con aire acondicionado. El baño privado incluye un juego de productos de baño, trae los tuyos. Desayuno incluido. El pasillo del 4to piso huele húmedo. Excelente opción.
BILDMarch 8, 2013Mitten im lebendigen Uni-Viertel und neben dem schönen Lincoln-Park gelegen, bietet das alte Backsteinhaus Schlafsäle und private Zimmer. Toll: der schöne Außenbereich
Frank NavejaSeptember 21, 2013El mejor hostal que e visitado en el mundo entero! De los 3 continentes que conozco de verdad es el mejor! Felicidades.
lucas portalNovember 9, 2015Wifi, café da manhã incluso, uma ótima cozinha e a interação com muitas pessoas legais.
В целом, это хороший хостел, но не забывайте про тапочки для души, мыло и все такое. В некоторых комнатах проблемы с вентиляцией.
