Chicago Parthenon Hostel

It’s was a cool stay .. I only stayed one night… it’s small and an old building .. a place to lay your head but that’s it …

AC was not working and they shifted in other rooms. Unfortunately, Room was very compact and not enough space. AC is also not working properly. Their charges is like 5 star but service below 2 star

Very nice place staff was very hospitable and accommodating the bed was just a bit uncomfortable but it was still nice. very clean!

This was horrible. I have never had a worse stay in Chicago. Let’s start with objective facts: the bathroom sink handles were broken, the urinal handle was broken, the bedroom doors did not close properly, the doorknob was very loose. The entire building had very harsh chemical smells, and the towels smelled so strongly of chemicals that we could not use them. I would guess that this building as a whole is not even close to being up to code. The floor is horribly uneaten, doors don’t close, outlets falling out of the walls, etc. On top of that, the staff was really nasty during check-in and check-out. One of the greatest cities in the world does not deserve to have such an awful place. There are other hostels in the city that are both cheaper and at a higher quality. Very disappointed with this stay. Certainly takes the prize as worst yet.

Check-in was made very easy by pleasant staff. Our room was very warm at night, but the property was being renovated so that may have been the cause. The area is cozy, with plenty of parking lots nearby.

Super convenient but lacked some comforts. It was HOT in our room, roughly 85 degrees outside, same in the inside. Be sure to bring a fan! And ear plugs! Noise from the street lasts all night. Overall we’d stay again but need some extra supplies 😂

As good as it was going to get in downtown Chicago area. Typically see European eccentric holiday goes galavanting the Western Hemisphere.

Bed mattresses and pillows could use an update. They’re too hard and pillows are flat. Showers are nice and place has been kept up-to-date well. Towels are extra. Recommend using earplugs if you don’t want to be disturbed by outdoor noises.
