Just superb

Wonderful. Chill, comfy, quiet, human-scaled and very well situated in walkable, eclectic Wicker Park, central by transit to everywhere else. And the best part: such friendly, helpful, personable family owners who run a great place with care for people and their experience. Just a great home base for any Chicago visit.

Craig

Disliked: Amenities
Hate to leave a bad review, I’m they are good people. Little out of their control but people were up at 2am in the morning slamming stuff around and cooking/cleaning making noise. The walls are paper thin so you hear everything. WiFi didn’t work. I don’t think anyone could get into the office/work area. I would go to the bathroom and come back and be locked out of my room. The shower towels smelt like they weren’t cleaned. I payed for the private room so I thought it would be a better experience. The bed was comfortable. Super boxed in with no window in the room. I ended up leaving a few days early because I just could handle it anymore and I was loosing sleep. A lot of old food just hanging out in the fridge and not a lot of space to put your own food.

Very easy to check in, never even met anyone from the property. It's all done with codes and the instructions were very clear. I think the only thing I didn't like is that I was charged extra on the day of the check in and I wasn't aware I'll need to also pay for a "cleaning fee" and some tax that I had to send over PayPal.

It’s a budget-friendly place to stay with a convenient location and public transportation within walking distance. However, in terms of cleanliness, I requested a bedsheet and towel change for four consecutive nights, and although I was told it would be done, it never was.
