Northalsted 4 Stars Hotels

"The room was clean, a good size and all the facilities however for me the downfall was their shower. When it was cold it was too cold and hot was too hot and it was difficult to find a happy medium. The bed was fine, but the pillows were too filled and chunky, so my head wasn't supported as much. We opted for the inclusion of breakfast however it wasn't a buffet we were just allowed to pick one item of food from whatever was available, and the savoury hot food wasn't vegetarian, so I had to have a sweet option every morning. The location of the hotel was good with many dining out options all a walkable distance and not too far from downtown Chicago."

"I didn’t like the TV app, but everything else was perfect!"

"Staff was wonderful. Great location for exploring the city!"

"Staff was very friendly!"

"Clean and quite. Good location. ."

"The staff was extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming. I took a chance on a hostel and I was not disappointed. Just for those in my shoes, I will save you the research: bring a lock because they do have assigned lockers for your stuff. I wasn’t sure so I “pack muled” while I was there, ending with me needing to acquire a backpack. They do not supply toiletries other than dish soap (which I used to shower with; low-key no shame). But I stayed in a shared female quad dorm. I got lucky and they were very quiet and respectful. They have laundry facilities but I will warn you, the whole city runs on card and phone pay so either bring your own quarters or do what I had to do and wander the city at 1am carrying my laundry to a Walgreens to find change for $5 because the front desk didn’t have enough and most places don’t have expenditure capita ($2.50 to wash/$2.50 to dry). They do have tide powder soap for $1 at the front desk so that was nice. I never got to utilize their bars or dining area but they looked hoppin’. I went for a concert and didn’t have time to enjoy those things. You need your keycard to use the elevators, get into the laundry room and your obviously your room. The main level is open to the public up until 0230 and if you’re out and about after that time, you need your card to enter the building. But all in all, I highly highly HIGHLY recommend Freehand!! Amazing pricing, multiple options and right next to Pizzaria UNO as it turns out. Safe Travels! 💜"

"Just an old outdated hotel you know what you’re getting water pressure was a little low. Paint was cracked."

"Great breakfast. Made to order omelets. Great location. Walkable to Bean and Navy Pier. The availability of complementary wine window wax too short."

"Asked Expedia for an early check-in and was told it would be after three like it was supposed to be. It was very cold in Chicago and all we wanted to do is get in a room and begin the day. They promised they would call when our room is available and never ever did. So we walked around in cold Chicago waiting for the call that never ever came. Got the room at 6:30 pm and went to sleep a couple hours later. The heater didn’t work and it was freezing in the broom although they did bring blankets up and a tiny space eater the size of a shoebox. It was definitely not worth what we paid. (A Premium price) and feel a partial refund would be in order."
