A Guilt-Free Getaway 

Credit: Hostelworld

If you’re looking for a sweet escape to celebrate the holiday of all things heart-shaped, here's some good news: You don’t have to blow your savings on a romantic five-star hotel. Each of these listings provide privacy, hotel-like amenities and a price your wallet will love.

The Freehand Chicago

Wipe those metal bunkbeds from your memory, the super-hip Freehand Chicago hostel offers private rooms that rival a traditional hotel, starting at $109 a night. Enjoy complimentary breakfast in a bed designed by Gwyneth Paltrow's go-to decorators, Roman and Williams. Then head out to explore the neighborhood — the hostel's located just two blocks from Michigan Avenue.

Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania

This charming cottage in the Poconos has a minimum four-night stay, which works out to about $194 per night. The cozy property, available through TripAdvisorRentals, sleeps four. So it's perfect for a Galentine's Day getaway or a weekend escape with a couple of couples. While the house is ideally situated on the Delaware River with access to hiking and skiing, we wouldn’t blame you for posting up next to the fire for the entire trip.
