8/10 Good
"My teenagers and I enjoyed our time at Freehand Chicago. They really enjoyed staying in the bunk beds, which were very comfortable. Each bed has a light and outlets - perfect for charging stuff. The location was perfect for exploring the city. The staff was great! Very helpful when checking in (really the only time we interacted with them). Air conditioning worked great. The shower water pressure was great. I question if the little curtains between the beds have ever been washed, but that was our only concern about the cleanliness of the room. Overall we would happily return for another stay!"
