Always a great stay. 2-3 times a year we travel to Chicago and always try to book a room here. Rooms are always clean and inviting. Within walking distance to Wrigley Field really makes it an awesome place to stay.

The room had everything we needed for an unplanned one night stay close to the venue we visited. It was clean and really nice. Definitely a unique hotel.

Room and building very clean, open spaces to room next door make it a bit noisy and decreases overall privacy. Good location, foam mattress kind of bad. Absolutely cannot check in even a minute early. Not sure I would go back

Room was clean. Bathroom was interesting since you leave the room to get to it but it’s private. Location was great! All in. Very happy.

Was as advertised. Basic accommodations that were clean and affordable, pared down amenities but really all I needed was a room and shower. The room I was in had a detached bathroom which I thought would be more annoying but really wasn’t. Only thing is the bathroom was freezing cold and would benefit from better insulation or a small heater.

All good
Hotel is in a nice location and I felt very safe. Room was clean though it was a little strange that the bathroom is accross the hallway and not in the room (it was ok since it was a private bathroom and there is only 2 rooms on the floor).

The walls are very thin. I understand that it's an older building, however, I could hear everything as if it was right on the other side of the door, and I mean everything. The bed is very firm and uncomfortable. I also wish there was some kind of full-length mirror somewhere in the room.
The location is good and everything felt safe. It was also nicely decorated and clean overall.

This is a renovated house so the room plan is a little unconventional with external bathrooms (private). The rooms are attractive, although a desk would have been nice for our room for laptop work. The location worked well for our purposes as we have family to visit in the Lakeview district. We did not interact with any staff, as check in was performed online and a code is issused to access the front door, room, bathroom, and internal hallways. A good price, but I would pay a little more for an en suite bathroom and a desk the next time.

The walls are paper-thin; you can hear absolutely every sound from every other room in the building. We could hear soft-spoken conversations in other rooms, and the man across the hall snoring throughout the night. In our visit, the people upstairs were blasting music and partying all night, and unfortunately, it was as if we were in the room with them. The place itself felt very safe and is in a great location. Check-in was very easy and accommodating. It was clean and well-kept. I would avoid the room with the detached bathroom, as it is very annoying to sneak through the hallway to use it, but it is openly marketed as such.

It was impossible to get in contact with anyone in the “lobby” which was just a locked room down a hallway with a phone i could hear ringing over and over again through the walls. I did not see a single staff member my entire stay. The walls are so thin I could hear every little thing. Thank god the speak easy was closed downstairs or I don’t think I would have gotten any sleep at all. There were only 2 towels in the bathroom and half a roll of toilet paper. No hooks anywhere to hang your belongings so everything/wet towels had to stay on the floor. There was no heat or air conditioning just a tower fan in the corner of the room which got very stuffy and very uncomfortable fast. The only thing I enjoyed about my stay was the convenience of being close to a parking garage, numerous restaurants and the L train. Other than that I will be sure to never stay there again. I could have stayed some where so much nicer for the $230 I was charged plus surprise 15$ fee at checkout.

Feels like a glorified “serviced apartment” more than a hotel — no staff onsite except the occasional cleaning person. No luggage storage, but there are locations nearby to store your bags (via Bounce, ~ $15 for 2 bags for the day).
With that said, the room was clean, cool, and comfortable. Great price compared to other accommodations in the area — location is A+, walkable to many bars & restaurants and the red line. All communication with the property was clear. Overall, would stay again.

Great hotel in a great location. Loved the communal kitchen. Just wish the Blind Wolf speakeasy was open the Friday night of our stay. But we’ll hit it up next time and there WILL BE A NEXT TIME.
