Chicago Getaway Hostel Reviews

The staff of the hostel is very cool. The hostel is very clean. The breakfeast is not that good.

Excellent hostel. I appreciated saving money and also meeting some awesome friends. I will be returning here!

Had an excellent stay at the Getaway. It's in a great neighbourhood & I ended up spending most of my time exploring the neighbourhood. Very friendly and helpful staff plus great facilities. Would definitely return and recommend to my friends.

Positive experience. Very friendly staff who organizes activities that contribute to a positif Chicago experience.

You guys have a great hostel, great place, great staff and everything. I loved the hostel, I wanted to live there. But it is too far away from the major touristic attractions! It took me and my friend from 1hr to 2hrs or more to get where we wanted by bus. I know what you say about having a true Chicago experience, and the neighborhood is really nice - but for those who are going to stay only a few days and want to see the places Chicago is famous for, it gets difficult.

one of the best hostels I have ever been, great location close to beach, ZOO and overground station, cool breakfast, clean bathrooms, small but cozy room...I will come back if I have a chance :-). thank you!

good hostel, placed in a wonderful neighbourhood they have good facilities like free wifi, free luggage storage and free breakfast!

Great place to stay in Chicago! A little far from O'Hare (about 1.5 hr by public transportation - EL) but it's in a beautiful, fun neighborhood. This place is nice, clean, huge, has everything you need, including fun & knowledgeable staff. Will definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends.

This is the best hostel I have been to. Staff is very nice and proffesional, instalation are really modern and clean, the neighborhood (Linconln Park) is one of the beutiest in Chicago, easy to get there by train or bus and well connected to good areas in the city. The only one point it must be improved is the wifi network-internet conection, it works, but its so slooooow and it ussually drops down, I just could check my email and anything else. Excellent job guys!

Great staff! very friendly and helpful. The location is in a beautiful neighborhood and great area

Chicago Getaway Hostel was very cool. I liked the staff, met nice guests, thought the facilities (Kitchen, common room, etc.) were very good. Also good public transport very near bye. I will stay there again. Sehr zu empfehlen! Freundlich, sauber, coole Leute, top Location in der nähe von Bus und Bahn Linien.

staff, atomosphere were good, especially security was the best ever :) Location wasn't good cuz' we have to walk long time to get there but as it is located on red line station, location to downtown was good.

The best hostel i have ever experienced. a little expensive thou

loved it. absolutely awesome. great staff, great neighborhood. you should definitely rent a bike in the hostel and drive around the city. it´s super fun :)

a great place to stay while my vacation in chicago, the staff was great, location is more than suitable and safe. you have to walk a bit to a train station though but still I had a great time.

Very polite and accommodating staff. Quiet neighbourhood and within walking distance of Fullerton CTA red line. Spotlessly clean. Excellent value for money in a major US city. Noise levels from adjacent rooms and wash room doors banging an issue until I requested a room change. Hostel staff accommodated this without question. Issue resolved.

Great hostel in a great location. Easy access to public transportation and the staff is friendly and helpful. Surrounded by bars and restaurants, has a couple of markets close as well.

I didn't expect to have such a great welcome and great room+place like this. Very recommend to stay here. Even you are a girl and travel alone like me. It's not hard to travel around and not scarry at all.

Very good place to spend some time. Our stay was really pleasant!

I really enjoyed staying at this Hostel, the only flaw I would say is the events. There was a dinner and none of the staff stayed there to host the event. they could be more involved. The rooms are really clean. Breakfast could have options of drinks besides coffee and tea. If you want juice or hot chocolate you have to pay for them. The staff is great at giving info about the area.
