Overall was a good stay for the price point and location. Room was superficially cleaned and small but comfortable. It felt like the bedroom and bathroom could have used a deeper clean. Check in and check out instructions were clear, host was helpful and communicated promptly, and the location was super convenient and nice!

If you want 0 privacy, and you enjoy sharing a tiny place (and 1 bathroom) with noisy people, this is the place for you! If not, JUST LOOK FOR A REGULAR HOTEL, in which prices are similar to this…

Timothy

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place is very quirky. Positives are the adjacent co-working space which you have access too as a guest. Negatives are one bathroom and people that spend an hour+ in it leaving everyone else hanging. Strange and unpleasant smells. Bed I had in my private room was comfortable though and that was what I mostly needed.

Shoutouts to the night receptionist who helped me the 16th of May. I booked the dormitory and someone had used my assigned bunk which sucked because it was 1 in the morning (this was not Stay 424’s fault). I called it in and within the hour I was rebooked to another accommodation. Stay 424 has won my business for any future trips to Chicago on customer service alone. I think you’d struggle to find anywhere else where management has your back at 1 AM like that

The staff lack training in hospitality, customer service, and consideration. The photos used are misleading. The property is under scaffolding. It doesn't matter how much cleaning is done, the kitchen, bathrooms, and common areas always feel gritty and sticky. This hostel is far from community-oriented with how the staff avoid greetings and acknowledgment. Most of the people who stay here also contribute to the discomfort and awkwardness.
