No fuss check-in and check-out, very close to downtown and Blue Line metro station to get to all the places (including O'Hare). Room is very clean.

For a low-cost, shared bathroom experience, it was excellent, very clean with CTA stations nearby. Also number 65 bus takes you to Navy Pier, very convenient. I recommend Grand House for location and low cost stay.

Honestly, the only problem was their customer service. I was at their premises; they booked me in a mixed dorm while I had booked a Junior Suite. They had to reallocate me because it was booked. Since they contacted me after 3 PM, I had to spend more cash to move to their new premises. Other than that, the room was comfy; the mattress felt like a rock- it was rock solid.

It's a hostel! DO NOT THINK THAT THIS IS A HOTEL! The price per stay is outrageous for it being a hostel. We paid a hotel price for not a hotel experience. The room was freezing the entire time. It's been a loooooong time since I slept in a bunk bed lol. No real amenities. Location is what saves the stay. You have options for food within walking distance. Ride sharing to and from this place isn't bad either. I highly doubt that I will stay here again. First time for everything I suppose.

It felt safe, secure, and was an easy walk from Union Station as well as very close to CTA sites for launch into the city

The property is within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, and even concert venues! The communal living spaces were well maintained and comfortable, and privacy was never a concern when needed.

Location was super convenient, and the management was always responsive despite being offsite. I received a text around 2PM with my check in code and directions for how to find my assigned room, and the code became active at exactly 3PM. This place is simple, no-frills, but it is safe, clean, the bed was comfortable, and honestly I was stunned that despite being in a busy area, it was quiet enough that I didn't need my earplugs! I would absolutely stay here again.

We arrived a bit too early for check-in, but the staff kindly let us leave our bags there. We were also running late afterward, and they really took the time to help us find a quick solution. The staff was honestly amazing, even though they were super busy, they did everything they could to help us out. They understood exactly what we needed and were so kind and attentive. Special thanks to Krys,super friendly and helpful!

This is NOT a hotel in the strictest term of the word, more like a Pension. Bathroom was shared, with a communal kitchen area, NO smoke detectors in individual rooms, NO working ventian blinds on window! 1 light worked in my room, had to move the bed to find a place to charge my cellphone. Room was clean, building was very secure, BRING EARPLUGS street outside is very noisy.

Within walking distance of Chicago's most beloved institutions (Richard's Bar and The Salt Shed), this well equipped hostel put us in the heart of the action. Affordable parking and helpful staff secure Grand House's place near the top of on my return trip itinerary.

Staff decided to hammer outside our room at 8am in the morning to take the railing off. Erie vibes, small bed in "luxury sweet". Shower takes 10mins to warm up.
