10/10 Excellent

"just a beautiful home! easy walk to Rate field"

Warm & Spacious 4BR Home Long Stays Welcome

"It was such a nice experience, very clean looked exactly like the pictures very spacious for the amount of people that we had I will say that it is in a spot where it’s farther from downtown Chicago, which is where we planned all our festivities so just make sure you have enough time to travel to and from however that could’ve been better planned on our part overall, it was very cute. Very nice very clean and we felt very safe. As well as the host were very nice very cheerful. They were willing to answer any questions that you may have and was literally a phone call away, and they worked in a timely manner which we very much appreciate for people that are out of town."

Spacious Bronzeville Gem Garden lvl Near Downtown, University of Chicago, Museum

"The property was beautiful, our host was friendly and responsive, and nearby access to public transportation made our stay unforgettable. I would highly recommend this lodging to anyone who is looking to explore downtown Chicago and is willing to get familiar with public transportation. It was convenient and comfortable and we will definitely stay here again if/when we return to Chicago."

Bright Vintage U of C Center Condo with WiFi, AC in enjoyable Chicago

8/10 Good

"The queen beds were comfortable and the parking was easy. It was nice that there were so many bathrooms, so no one ever had to wait. There was no bedding for the futons/couch, we found a thin blanket to use as a sheet and we happened to bring a blanket with us, so we made do. In the common areas there isn't much comfortable seating. Someone was sleeping on the couch, so that only left the table with chairs upstairs. Be aware that when the people on the floor above walk around it is very loud. So bring ear plugs or a white noise machine. It is easily walkable to the Obama Presidential Library, which is a must see!"

Bronzeville Manor walking distance to hospitals

"Beautiful home that was hosted for us and very clean. Very attentive host with our questions and concerns. Host was also able to accommodate to any issues that came up. Everything we needed to stay comfortably was available to us. Highly recommend!"

LakeHouse with rooftop and views of lake.

"This house and neighborhood is absolutely wonderful. Proximity to train station in ease of getting into downtown Chicago was top-notch. Proximity to beach and other local attractions was great as well. The home had the most comfortable beds and was perfectly spacious enough to accommodate the six guests staying here. We had such a great time and hope to visit again someday soon."
