Although this place gets high ratings from me...I have to say....it works...BUT...it\'s really institutionalized, not cosy or freindly. Too high to the ceiling. Too many people.

We paid for 6 beds female dorm but there were 8 girls in the dorm. There were 4 double bunk beds but only with 2 ladders, causing alot inconvenience. We complained about it to the front desk and the manager, he promised to put new ladders but no action was taken. The beds were mislabelled and there were only 6 lockers in the dorm as well.

The hostel is pretty good. Excellent location and very convenient. But shower rooms are a little bit dirty.

Really enjoyed my stay here. Rooms and bathrooms were well appointed and clean. The staff were full of suggestions of things to do and where to go. The hostel is very well located right in the Loop within walking distance of virtually all the attractions.
