This is a great place to stay if you are looking for a cheap place to stay in while visiting Chicago. The nearest subway station is about a 20 minute walk away from the place, so keep that in mind if you are not brining a car. It is however very close to Downtown. The rooms are okay, although they might be missing a mirror. The whole room had a very strong tabaco smell, which am guessing was from last guest that stayed in. The fridge is shared, we had a gallon of water which we stated was private; still, some guest drunk almost all of it. It was an average experience, probably nicer and cheaper than a hostel if you are sharing the room with friends, and feels more private.
