    Close to transport (bus or subway). Very cozy location, with a few great places for eating, drinking and having fun. I recommend to rent a bike and go to the loop via the bike path next to lake Michigan at least once. Awesome ride!

    The hostel was in a decent neighborhood. I appreciated the affordable option of renting a double room. I thought the bed was comfortable and liked that the room had a ceiling fan.

    I’ve been staying here for years and it is a great option for budget travelers or people who are less interested in spending their money on a place to sleep vs doing things. Staff is great and friendly and it is very clean.
