My colleague friend and I had a fabulous stay. We loved the bunk beds. The Found is one of Chicago's hidden treasures. Close to excellent restaurants. Very personable staff. The common areas, including the large kitchen, is scrupulously clean and tidy. Thank you for a wonderful visit.

I was unhappy that the receptionist still asked me to fill the online arrival questionnaire even if I can hand to him my ID and credit card. I was put on hold three times on the line for more than 5 minutes when I called the front desk and tried to ask a simple question. The personal help part of the business was minimum and unpleasent.

This was my first time traveling solo, and the hotel exceeded all my expectations. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful—they guided me around Chicago and gave great advice on which train lines to use. My room was a comfortable size, not too big or too small, with a hot shower and strong water pressure, plus cold air conditioning that worked perfectly. I’ll definitely be staying here again on future trips to Chicago!

Overall a clean property but was disappointed that the bonfire was not ready/up to maintenance as well as when I asked about the home theather, I was told there wasn't one. We were looking forward to both things because we had chosen this hotel for those reasons and were sorely disappointed. The other problem was figuring out the tv/tv control, it was not easy, went down to ask how to select the option to stream from another device. Yet still wasn't able to use the tv. Regardless a good clean place.

Yes, do it.

My six year old daughter and I stayed at FOUND for a quick Mothers Day weekend getaway. It was perfect. The bunk beds were super fun and comfortable too. The check in check out process by phone was much appreciated, especially when traveling with a little one, solo. Super convenient location. Would definitely return.
