Reasons why you want to stay with us:

Location- We’re in Lincoln Park, the best neighborhood if you are looking to party and see what Chicago is really about.  You can walk to hundreds of bars, restaurants, coffee shops, and music venues.  You can also walk to Chicago’s best beach, the lakefront path, or the free lakefront zoo.  These are things a Loop hostel cannot offer.  If you want to see the tourist sites during the day, you can take the train downtown in about 20 minutes, but do not miss the nightlife of Lincoln Park!

Our Facilities - Our goal is to help you get to know Chicago and other backpackers.  Our hostel is large but our facilities are comfortable and inviting.  You’re sure to meet plenty of people in our comfortable lobby, our music room with a grand piano, our media room with flat screen TV, our lovely patio, or our large kitchen.   We do allow alcohol, unlike some other hostels, so grab a beer or a bottle of wine and enjoy yourself in our relaxing atmosphere.

What We Offer-  We host multiple FREE group events each week from pub crawls to weekend BBQs.  You’ll wake up to a FREE continental breakfast each morning.  We have a fast Wifi connection that is completely FREE.  We’ve got five computer terminals with FREE internet and FREE printing.  You can borrow one of our hostel guitars and serenade your friends or rent one of our bikes and see a large portion of the City in one day.  You can use our kitchen to cook a big meal or throw some food on the BBQ grill.

Our Staff-  We live in Chicago and we love Chicago.  We would love to direct you to places that the typical tourist does not find.  Stop by the front desk if you’re going out for a beer…..we might want to join you!
