The room was clean and the AC worked great, I was there for just one night but there was so many amenities with the kitchen, lounge and deck that I will 100% stay there again in the future.
This place is in a excellent area. Lots to do in a short walk with a price that is hard to beat. The place was clean and the staff was friendly and very helpful.
Great staff…very courteous and helpful. Private room has A/C and was very clean. If you are seeing a game or a concert at Wrigley Field, you can’t beat the location.
Ideal location for going to Wrigley Field. If you're going to a ball game or concert, this would be the place to stay. The L train is two blocks away, Wrigley is two blocks away, and restaurants, stores, cvs, 7-Eleven are two blocks away.
Decent stay at affordable price right next to Wrigley Field. Stayed in 6 bunk bed room that was decent. Good free amenties provided like water, tea, WiFi, & towels. You can store luggage before/after stay starting at 10AM. Very friendly staff too. Kitchen & extra game room & study area as well. Whether it's a Cubs game or to check out Wrigleyville & Chicago: great hostel to stay
You get what you pay for staying at a hostel but I still expected at least somewhat more comfortable beds and didn’t expect to have to deal with a fly infestation.
Great place to meet new people and the staff is great.
The hostel itself including staff was great! Super friendly and they made sure to keep the bathrooms clean. Only downside of it being a hostel is that a drunk guest tried to get in my bed in the middle of the night, which as a solo female traveller was scary. Other than that everyone minds their business! I would come again just hope for a top bunk or all female room instead.
It was okay for 1 night. I'm a 26 yr old female amd stayed in a mix gender dorm. I never felt unsafe inside the hostel. Its EXTREMELY warm in the common areas and they only have AC in the rooms (thank goodness)
I slept on the bottom bunk and it was very comfortable. The person above was moving but the bunk beds are very solid. I didnt hear any creaking nor feel the movement (which i was anticipating)
I came here for a concert at wrigley field and only chose this place for its location and price. Other hotels with private rooms were going for $400+ a night in the same area.
I do think its way overpriced for what it is. $100+ for basically just a bed to sleep in.
The staff were very helpful and nice. The reviews saying otherwise just come under prepared or dont read instructions beforehand. As I also work in hospitality (over 6 years) people usually blame the staff for their own lack of preparation. As long as you read the info the accommodation provides you'll be fine!
Hostel is in the heart of Wrigleyville. Everything you need is within walking distance. Public transportation is 1 block away. I've stayed here many times and everyone is very nice. I love staying here because you meet people from all over the world. Front entrance is locked, no access without key card or code. Common areas are clean. Each room is locked and requires key card to enter. I always feel safe. Parking can be tricky as it is in the neighborhood. The Hostel will provide a parking pass to park in the neighborhood but depending on the time of day and what's going on at the time it can be difficult to find parking. Very affordable

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This was a very unique experience. Overall we enjoyed it. However, the room we were in was on the basement floor and kind of cold. There was no closet or luggage storage on our floor that I knew of. Also the blinds were broken so we did not have total privacy. There was a time in the middle of the night were the pipes started knocking and vibrating so loud, it woke my wife and I up. There was no where to park. But that's not your fault. I would do it again, but definitely not for a long stay.
I travel a lot, domestic and international, and this was my first time to stay at hostel. It was a great first experience! I was in town for the Pearl Jam concert at Wrigley Field, and like a few others my age [50s], we picked Wrigley Hostel due to the location. YOU CANNOT BEAT THE LOCATION! I will say that being older, if I could request a lower bunk next time I absolutely would. Getting down was fun! :) The only inconvenience I would say is the lack of AC. I know it's an old building, but the only AC I felt was the window unit in the room. The common areas [the lounge area is wonderful!] were quite warm. Being from TX I am used to the AC going all the time in the summer. I will definitely stay here again if I travel to Chicago solo. Great experience for this first timer.
