About this property

Chic, Cozy home, by Blue Line Train Stop + Free parking

  • Relax in this chic and artfully designed condo. This sun-kissed 1-bedroom apartment in Irving Park is located in the city, but away from the hustle and bustle in a tree-lined quiet green neighborhood

    You can go just about anywhere in the city in 20 - 30 min as we are 2 minutes to the 24/7 EL blue line stop (train) and the I90/94 interstate. Our apartment is perfectly situated halfway between downtown Chicago & O’Hare airport. We are in a crime-free part of Chicago & have FREE PARKING. Our place is close to the interstate and the local metro stop (the EL blue line), so visitors from smaller cities may find it a bit noisy.

    You have exclusive access to this unit. Bedding, towels, and toiletries are all provided during your stay.

    There is a back patio with a gas grill, fire pit, and lawn chairs where you can entertain or relax at will. Please note that this space is used by full-time tenants of the building as well so please clean up after yourself and leave the space tidy

Wknd getaway for Conference/Pleasure

This location was Excellent: close to both the train and bus lines. A car was not needed. Although the apartment is small it will easily accommodate 1-3 adults comfortably. Several local eateries are also within walking distance.

Loved it!

Everything was just as described in Vrbo! Parking was very easy to find - very unusual in the city, easy to get around with the blue line being so close. The unit was nice and clean and very well stocked. I would definitely stay here again.

Clean & cozy

This property is very clean and very cozy. The location is great, except at night, I was able to hear the train and highway traffic. My husband wasn't bothered at all. We still liked it and suited our needs. The amenities were excellent. There's plenty of parking.

Very small space, but in a nice neighborhood

Stayed three nights at Labor Day. Was a quiet stay even though the interstate and train station are nearby. Would suggest that more towels be provided up front without having to contact the host.

Bologna meets Chicago

We had a wonderful stay at this house. It was clean, cozy, and well-equipped, with everything we needed in the kitchen and bathroom. The hosts, Jason and Anne, were incredibly kind and helpful, making our stay even more special. The location is particularly convenient: downtown Chicago is easily accessible by metro in about 20-25 minutes, and O'Hare Airport is just 10 minutes away. Despite the proximity to the highway and the metro, the house is very quiet. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended!

Cute little apartment

The house & the apartment were very clean & cute. Neighborhood was nice & felt safe. My only complaints were that we would’ve liked more than 2 bath towels for two people for 3 days. Also, it was very warm in the apartment (no air conditioning), but who could’ve known it would be 80 degrees in mid-October. Thank goodness there was one fan provided.

Nice and price and location

I booked this stay for the price, it was one of the more affordable options in the area and the location was pretty central. The neighborhood was pretty nice but finding close parking was difficult in the evenings. The place was clean and Jason was a really courteous and responsive host. My only thing was the photos in the listing were not totally up to date so I was suprised by the bed and couch not looking the same, but other than that the place is a nice, small stay if you’re looking for somewhere to mainly sleep while exploring the city.

Great location. And perfect size for one person!

Great little place with a few minor issues, that were not huge deals. No remote for tv and going thru VRBO app had a huge delay. Easier to communicate bias texting. Also, sewer smell in bathroom if the place was closed for several hours. Bed was comfy. Would love a normal chair to sit in as I have arthritis. Great little place for a senior woman (stairs just a little challenging w/luggage). Would be also great for a younger agile couple. Will be my go to place for future trips by myself. Safe neighborhood. Always found parking w/in a one block radius.

Disliked: Amenities, communication
The property is small, okay for one person stay, not four. The area is nice and quiet. Top neighbors walking and stomping frequently was annoying specially at night. The host was very rude. The first day of our arrival he opened the door of the apartment when he said I didn't answer his call or messages. He knocked very hard on the back door. My daughter and I were taking a nap after a long flight. When a opened he was questioning me why I didn't answer his message or call as he walk inside the apartment, which is unappropiate. He was very weird and rude. He even called me asking if I could come over so can give him the sheets I used cause he needed to wash them for the next guest who was to check in at 11am, by the we were checking at that same time. By the way, amenities aren't as described when booked. It was terrible experience.

As advertised

The check-in time was listed as 5 PM which is later than most check-in times at other properties I’ve stayed at. Our plane got in around 12:30 PM. We contacted the host Jason to see if we could at least drop our luggage off so that we could go out and do things without having to drag around suitcases. He graciously agreed. When we arrived, we were actually able to fully check in because they had cleaned the property. Check in process was very easy. Host provided coffee for the drip coffee maker, as well as instant coffee and tea and some basic spices, which is always appreciated. The bed was comfortable enough. The pillows were pretty flat and not very comfortable. One night we were out kind of late and when we came back, the door code that had worked previously didn’t work so I had to contact Jason around 10:30 PM for access to the unit. He was very gracious about it. it is conveniently located to the blue line train stop. That being said, if we were to visit Chicago again, we would stay closer to downtown because we basically had to count on an hour of transit time every time we went somewhere.

The plus side- good for the money, good location, cleanNot plus side- outdoor stair was very icy and only 1/3 of each step was clear. I was recovering form an ankle injury and there wasn't enough non-icy surface for my casted foot to step on. the toilet didn't flush on two inopportune times. and the TV screen didn't work one night.

Nice place in a fun part of town. Being able to walk to the L was a godsend, we took it everywhere. This is a good space for a couple. Maybe bring an eye mask if you need to sleep in a very dark room, the curtains don't do a whole lot.

My partner and I spent just a couple days here, and it worked out well. It is quite small, but it's great for two people. We only used it as as a place to relax and sleep at the end of the day as we spent most of our time elsewhere in town for restaurants and events. Being near the Blue Line and several major bus routes was helpful for that.
