Will be coming back. 10/10 experience!

Seriously such an amazing experience. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They held our luggage for us before our flight so we could go explore the city. We got back to the hotel and had time to kill before our flight but had already checked out of our hotel room, I went to the basement to use the public restroom to find an entire lounge area with couches, a tv, and a foosball table! We were able to get some work done before our flight and stay in the comfort of their lounge instead of the airport.

It was a very unique hotel experience. Everything that we needed was there and the bunk beds were convenient for me and my friend. Nice central location about 7 minutes from the Brown and Purple lines. Front desk workers were also very friendly and cheerful. My only slight complaint was how strong the air freshener was in the lobby, but that is more of a me problem than the hotel. I was out most of the day and only slept in the hotel at nice, but it was a nice experience overall!

the stay was interesting, its definitely a good location and a budget friendly option so if thats what you are prioritizing then its fine. but some issues: i got double charged for my stay, the floor of one of the rooms was constantly wet due to condensation from the ac (idk thats what they told me), there was no water provided, no room cleaning for the first few days of our stay until i asked,

It was very much what I paid for. I had to book last minute accommodation and found this hotel. I booked the bunk bed room, and for my short stay it served its purpose. I found the bathroom wasn't as clean as it could have been, I found hairs from other people and the floor hadn't been properly scrubbed in a minute, but the towels were clean and it was nothing egregious. Shower could use extra caulking. I hated the shower door. Extremely close to the toilet, and when you opened it, you either swung the door directly into the shower stream and got everything drenched, or you slammed it into the toilet itself. Also, no shelf in the bathroom, not even a hook for a washcloth. I understand they mounted the soap/shampoo/conditioner, but you need SOMETHING to hang your washcloth on. As for the room itself, my window was not properly sealed, and I could probably shove a folder in between it. Now, I did not tell the front desk, as I was literally only there for one full night, but I noticed that due to the rain outside, it let a lot of moisture in, and that ended up making me feel sick with the AC unit trying to combat it. As for the hallways, when the rain was going on, the entire hallway felt incredibly humid, as if there wasn't a way to regulate the humidity. I really did not appreciate that. The lobby area was fine, did not use the communal kitchen. I appreciate the security with the double doors. The area was absolutely fine, never felt unsafe.

A nice hostel experience in a hotel setting

We appreciate the cleanliness and ability to be together. One room was too loud with the street noise of people gathering outside the building but the hotel was very nice and the staff was great

Room cleanliness and amenities are at an all time low. The bed corners need to be vacuumed for extreme dust. We are allergic to dust. Ac needs to be cleaned, terrible loud sound when in use. Iron didn’t work. Blow dryer had an horrific smell when used. The best part was our bed being remade with the same stained sheets. Why enter our room to do that? Had to personally go to front desk and retrieve fresh bedding and towels. Bathroom towel for the floor had wet shoe prints. The other towels and rags were damp. The room was literally in use prior to our check in. Based on the hairs the person could have been a honey/dirty blonde. When changing the bed I realized the mattress covers weren’t changed hence more relic hairs on it. Amazing turn over. I blame the hotel for the allotted cleaning time these cleaners are given. The two draws in the room had the nerve to be broken. This place was used to shower and sleep sadly. Bed and pillows were like concrete. The saving grace was the dispensary across the street.

I wish I could give this place negative stars. I booked a premium queen room on Expedia and when I showed up, they said they only had a room with bunk beds (which did not work for me and my partner). The staff was not at all helpful and I spoke to another guest in the elevator who had to accept another room type other than the one they booked. Will never stay again

The staff was excellent. The lobby decor was beautiful. The room with the single bunkbeds was small, but the bathroom was good sized and lovely. A few more outlets in the room would have been helpful.
