This is a really amazing establishment located in a great area and incredibly affordable. My stay was supposed to be with two other females which was fine because I was aware beforehand, I was down for the experience especially for the price. But luckily when I arrived I was informed I’d be getting a room to myself. I only stayed one night because I wanted to check out another hotel as it being my first time in Chicago solely for the weekend. For $38 a night- this is honestly the best spot to stay, located in a great public area around plenty grocery stores and dining spots, everything is within walking distance downtown. The room was quaint and cleanly- honestly couldn’t beat this deal. I believed this was a hostel at first but I guess the room I was supposed to share was female only because there were males in the building which is fine- felt like a coed college dorm with a lounge and elevator to get to your room. You can not operate the elevator without your room key which is nice so therefore not anyone can just come in and go up. The only downside you’d find - not within the hotel, but parking- lol parking downtown and driving in general is a headache. I paid $53 to have my car parked overnight in the nearest parking garage I could find, parking is not validated- but with the price of the stay that would just be too good to be true lol.
