"great neighborhood"
Location was nice, near the Fullerton L station and easy walk to neighborhood shops and Clark St buses. Only issue was the shared bathroom... the showers could have been a lot cleaner.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Best hostel ever visited - highly recommend it"
The Getaway Hostel was a positive experience that only enhanced our great time in Chicago. I lived in both a dorm (2 nights) and a private double room (3nights) and both types were clean, good design and overall great service. I feel like I got great value for my money and I will definitely stay there again if I ever go back!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Amazing hostel in cute neighborhood"
This place was absolutely awesome and a great value, too! Big, spacious hostel with plenty of public space, lots of fun people and great events. Only complaint is the walls are very thin so you can hear people talking (quite clearly) in their rooms in the hall, and the mattress was really uncomfortable. That being said, I would gladly stay here and […] would very much recommend it to others in their travels through Chicago. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Everything I wanted! Love the air conditioner!!!"
I had a great time there. I would love to go again. Wish I could have stayed longer. Thanks to the super friendly and helpful staff for the restaurant, event, and transportation recommendations! Oh, and also for the discounted tickets to Sky Deck!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Perfect place to stay on a budget!"
Location, service, price... great! The nice, modern remodel was also a perk as well as the continental breakfast. Close to the Red Line, nice neighborhood. Would recommend checking out the Burwood Tap nearby for a drink. First time in Chicago and will definitely be back... and will be staying at this hostel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Economical and ideal for students visiting Chicago"
Me and my friend ( both are students) were visiting Chicago for 2 days and we chose this place for stay. The location was excellent and close to all the subway stations. It was economical and comfortable.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Clean and friendly hostel"
Great hostel with a large community room and outdoor patio. The furniture is basic but for a hostel the place is clean and the staff is friendly. The location isn't ideal if you want to do more downtown activities but it's convenient to a metra stop.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Spring Heat?"
Overall my stay at the Getaway Hostel was wonderful. I would recommend it to anyone. The only issue we had was that the heat was turned off at night. That was fixed by asking the front desk for an extra blanket. I assume this is only an issue in spring, maybe fall too. So, just ask for another blanket if you're prone to being chilly and you're all […] set! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Chicago Getaway Hostel"
Stayed here for the location alone -- right in the middle of Lincoln Park, in a beautiful neighborhood across from DePaul University, a 5-10 minute walk from Red/Brown Line. Rooms were hot and stuffy and bathooms were less than sparkling, but it's a hostel. Lobby, service, other guests were all awesome. They also sell cool t-shirts. :) Will stay here […] again.

Nice hostel. Nice neighbourhood, the "half bath" is misleading since there is no bath in the room - just a sink and a toilet..Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Always amazing"
I have stayed at the Getaway during my yearly trip to Chicago for the last three years. I love this hostel and would even rather stay here over a hotel because of the price and activities.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent stay in Lincoln Park"
Best hostel I've ever stayed in. Staff are friendly, approachable & very helpful. Breakfasts are delicious, plentiful & FREE. Beds are comfortable & rooms are clean. Common areas are clean & great for meeting other travellers. Bathrooms are clean & well-maintained. Lincoln Park is a great area with many social outlets and is easily accessible via public […] transport from O'Hare. Fabulous place! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"A very nice hostel"

"Chicago Getaway Hostel"
ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, ci aspettavamo peggio,da tipico ostello e invece ci ha davvero stupiti! Noi,2 ragazzi di 21 e 25 anni a Chicago x divertimento x4giorni siamo super soddisfatti. a 5 minuti dalla metro centrale,staff veramente disponibile e pronto ad aiutarti,colazione sufficente (forse orario un pò troppo mattutino xki è in vacanza,fino […] alle 9e30..),pulizia buona,qualche pecca nella stanza come porta rumorosa al momento della chiusura e prese elettriche facili da raggiungere maggiormente dal letto inferiore del letto a castello. Ma in ogni caso soddisfatti al 100% , lo consiglierei ! Grazie Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"値段相応かなー？"
大変混んでいました。ドミトリーだったので、知らない３人と同室でしたが、楽しかったです。夕飯はなぜかサービスがありステキでした。朝ご飯は果物、パンがビュッフェ形式で出ました。これもGood。ロケーションもまあまあいいです。CTAの1DayPassがあれば、市内のいろいろなところにも行きやすいです。もう少しやすくてもいいなあ・・・。Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hostel - trygt og god service"
I betragtning af, at dette er et hostel, så var vi ovenud glade for at bo der. Personalet var altid hjælpsomme. Der var rent og pænt. Der var mennesker i alle aldre, men selvfølgelig også en del unge, så husk ørepropper, hvis du vil være sikker på at sove hele natten! Mange små gennemtænkte detaljer, såsom en del computere og en printer til fri afbenyttelse. Køjesengen […] på vores værelse var lidt besværlig at kravle op i. Hostellet lå i et meget trygt kvarter, og det var nemt at komme til station og downtown. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
