Studio 424

Place is okay. Everything is handled remotely and passcoded. They could do better on the service by adding atleast 1 staff onsite

Shoutouts to the night receptionist who helped me the 16th of May. I booked the dormitory and someone had used my assigned bunk which ****** because it was 1 in the morning (this was not Stay 424’s fault). I called it in and within the hour I was rebooked to another accommodation. Stay 424 has won my business for any future trips to Chicago on customer service alone. I think you’d struggle to find anywhere else where management has your back at 1 AM like that

Bathroom door was broken, door code didn't work, coffee maker wouldn't reach an outlet without being on the floor. It was clean enough and the volunteer staff who live there were helpful enough. It was a cheap stay.

This place is very quirky. Positives are the adjacent co-working space which you have access too as a guest. Negatives are one bathroom and people that spend an hour+ in it leaving everyone else hanging. Strange and unpleasant smells. Bed I had in my private room was comfortable though and that was what I mostly needed.

microwave was not functioning, Bed was old and making lot of noise and disturbance to sleep. Bathroom is tooooooo small.

Was only in town one night, but STAY had all I could’ve needed, a very friendly staff, an incredibly comfy bed [even if I’m not the most graceful when it comes to exiting a top bunk…]

Great location and affordable. However the place was dirty, some bed sheets were dirty. The shower wasn't draining but 'luckily' there isn't much water pressure so we didn't flood the place. When I told them they said they checked it and it was fine but that wasn't true, issue was the same the next day. The microwave was broken too. Note the staircase is very steep and narrow, so you need to be able to carry your luggage.

We had some issues with our code not working for our door in the middle of the night, but there were staff on-site to help us troubleshoot immediately.

Comfortable, easy acces to public transportation, good kitchen/dining area. Short walk to kayak company for event.
