Has potential
We stayed here to celebrate my Mom's 83rd Birthday in Chicago. Place needs a good dusting and some minor repairs. I would have preferred a locking gate and functioning porch light out front. I had to reach out to 3 different companies to get assistance when the washer stopped working. The beds were comfy and it was cute but could use some finishing touches to make it better.

Excellent property but…
Loved the property & it’s location but it’s managed by a third party so communications are managed very differently (ie, access info was not sent until a couple of hours before checkin) & none of that is explained in the property description. The description also says cable is included but it wasn’t. The very brief instructions for the tv noted it was an LG tv but it was actually a Toshiba - ended up going back & forth with the third party to get the issue fixed which was resolved with a new tv (but still no cable) almost 48 hours after checkin. The whole experience was frustrating and time consuming and required me to change some of my plans on my limited stay in Chicago. Also did not get any sort of refund for the inconvenience plus not having something that was noted in the description.

Great Unit but look for AllSet Turnover in emails for Check-in/check-out.
The unit was amazing, it’s in a great location. The price for the weekend was great. It had everything we needed. Including parking! The only downside with this is how the listing is managed and the lack of communication as a whole. From what it appears, it’s owned by a Vacation Rental Agency, named RedAwning. While everything else is managed outside of VRBO by a property management company, named AllSet Turnover. This is all fine and dandy, if this was stated anywhere in the listing. Which I didn’t see it listed anywhere. All the emails for coordination, check-in, rules, anything of the sort will come from AllSet Turnover. The listing seems to be just a copy and paste of their other properties, which is fine. And any communication from AllSet Turnover seems to be automated which makes the reading through things clunky but that’s also fine. Just something to be aware of when dealing with this listing. I wish that anywhere in this listing would have said that or there would have been a Vrbo message stating that. Only reason I didn’t delete the email is from reading previous reviews. Outside of that, great spot! Would stay again.

Christmas in Chicago
The property was nice and a great location for our family and the activities we were doing over the holiday. There were just minor issues with the property which included the TV/Internet going out numerous times per day, many of the the electrical and light switches were not working properly, kitchen tools like thongs and other items missing, and the sheets in the front bedroom did not fit the bed and kept coming off. The cleanliness of the bathroom could have been better with tile falling off in certain areas. It would have been great to use the fireplace as well. Overall it worked out good, just a few items that should be fixed moving forward. RT

Very well equipped property and location
Thank you for kitchen condiments and nice furnishings that met our needs. It was nice to have a washer and dryer along with a designated parking space. Communication with the property manager was good. Beds and space were comfortable. We needed to stay in the area, so this was perfect. I was glad that it was available and would stay again. Note that if you do a few loads of laundry, there may not be enough hot water for two showers, so shower first or do a cold water wash. This was minor but worth mentioning. Still a great stay.

Right from day 1 the DW did not work. There were dirty dishes inside of it. I had two kids with me, and it was really hard to wash the dishes with hand. I called VRBO, Redawning and they asked me to call the host and it was really hard to get anybody to address this issue.

Electrical disaster
The first night the power went out to 2/3 of the house. I woke and flipped all of the circuit breakers off and on. power was restored ever so briefly. the rest of the weekend the power continued to fail over the same 2/3 of the house. i called the first day about this issue. The property manager said their handyman said the issue was because we had “a bunch of electronics plugged in”. we had 2 iphone chargers plugged in. the issue was never addressed. We continued to lose power every 40 minutes or so. Don’t stay here.

Great two bedroom condo in Old Town that is within walking distance of Armitage and many other areas! Each bedroom has its own dedicated work space (including one with a monitor!) and there is ample room to set up a pack n play crib if needed. Unit also has dedicated parking but there is also street parking available if needed.

We spent a week in Chicago to tour the city, with two kids under 6yo. This residence was a big contributor to a wonderful trip. The neighborhood was gorgeous - tree lined streets, very safe….and walkable to subway, restaurants, North Ave beach and the zoo. The apartment was clean and had plenty of space to hang out in when we weren’t bouncing around the city. Stephanie the host was very responsive and helpful throughout the week. We would definitely recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

We had a terrible experience
I cannot believe what a terrible experience we had at this property. For the price they are charging, please beware. The unit was so dirty and not cleaned well at all. We had two major issues, not enough hot water and the parking. The parking spot always has garbage cans in it which makes it impossible to park your car. I contcted the managment company numerous times to get out of our contract and they took forever to get back to me. They did offer to buy a new hot water heater. The cabinets are very hold and don't open all the way, the top floor doesn't get as much air conditionoing so it's very hot when you sleep. I found the house to be very un kept and needing many upgrades and they are charging an outrage price for what you get. I tried to get out of my 3 week stay because it did not meet any expectation of cleanliness, parking, air conditioner and inadequate amount of water. I wouldn't stay here ever again.

This was a great home base for getting to know Chicago! 10 minutes walking distance to the brown/purple and red lines, 10-15 minutes on the train to the city. Peaceful, magical neighborhood and easy-to-live-in house! Great water pressure in the shower, inclusive streaming apps on the TV, and fully stocked kitchen. Only minor note is that the mattresses are a bit too hard for side sleepers. Ideal for stomach sleepers though!

Perfect spot in Old Town
This townhome was everything we hoped it would be, and more! The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed for cooking and enjoying takeout. The dining table with seating for 6 made eating together such a treat! The beds were very comfortable. It was so quiet too! We enjoyed walking to Lincoln Park for Zoo lights, as well as walking to nearby restaurants. Another bonus was having a parking space! We couldn’t have dreamed of a better location. We hope to stay here again next time we are in Chicago!
