This is an absolutely beautiful and comfortable home. The location was ideal for us and street parking was available. This is one of the most user friendly home I have stayed in. The whole home is updated with lighting and flooring, wall treatments, etc., yet it has a very warm feeling from the vintage, classis decor. The beds were very comfortable, the giant couch in the front room is AMAZING! We had family over visiting a few times and never felt cramped. I highly recommend this home. The property manager lives on site and that brought us comfort.
Property is clean well maintained. Quite neighborhood in the evenings. Garage parking for 1 vehicle was great bonus, no searching for steet parking after a busy day. Property manager was great and even helped make sure we received a ups delivery we needed during our stay.a
Beautiful property. The three bedrooms were all spacious. The loving room, dining room, and kitchen were equally spacious. Neighborhood is quiet. An all-around wonderful stay.
Very convenient and comfortable property. Having the garage to park in was great, but it was a tight fit for our mini-van we rented! Communication and hospitality was all top-notch!
Huge great place, nice location and garage parking
Stayed two nights. Great location in Rogers park. Property manager is on site and gave a lovely tour of property. Also had a binder with restaurants, things to do, etc which I appreciate! Large kitchen, laundry, garage parking for car. Everything was lovely!
Great place, just a little far from the touristy things in downtown, mostly because of traffic. Very attentive on-site property manager. Very comfortable stay for two couples and one
single adult.
The property was perfect for our needs. The house was immaculate. The bathrooms were great. The kitchen was spacious. The garage parking was narrow but the description accurately forewarned of the vehicle size limitations. Location was central to our plans so we were able to drive or Uber around to our activities with ease. We would stay here again and would recommend to friends, family and anyone looking for an alternative to hotel rooms.
On our visit we found spaciousness, convenience, locality, and peacefulness both in our rental and around. It was a nice rental as an easy home base to set out of, and a welcome respite to return to. We would rent the unit again, and do hope to be back. Very nice trip and place of stay. Thank you!
Ross, the property manager, is very courteous and helpful. Property clean and well-appointed. Family group with 2 dogs. Took Uber rides into city to see museums and shows. Garage parking was nice. Very quiet neighborhood at night. Overall a nice, well-managed property that we highly recommend.
We loved this rental in Chicago! It was spacious and in a safe neighborhood. It allowed us to relax at the end of each day and wasn't too far from all the places we wanted to visit. Out host, Ross, was extremely gracious and very helpful when we arrived. I can't say enough good things about this property!
Beautiful and spacious unit with everything you could ask for. There were 5 of us and we had plenty of space to spread out and be comfortable. Great hospitality and Ross met us for checkin even though our flight had been delayed. Wonderful location and within walking distance of restaurants, shops and the CTA station (Howard). Would definitely stay again.
The apartment was really spacious. It was very clean and the check in and out process was smooth. The property manager Ross was easy to deal with. The location is only a 10-15 minute walk from the red line which came in handy when wanting to go into the city. Over all this was a really good VRBO experience
Spent a few days in Chicago for a short family vacation. This VRBO was central to the activities we wanted to do. All went well. A few more nonessential supplies would have been handy- a broom, dish soap, kitchen wash rags for example. No big deal, just suggestions! Thanks!
I stayed with a group of friends, Chicago being a central location for us. The large couch and full dining room table was great for spending a snowy afternoon by the fireplace and cooking meals. The property manager was kind and helpful. I highly recommend this space.
The condo was beautiful. Spacious, nicely decorated, had everything and more of the things you would need. The location was near everything that was important to us. Josh, the manager, was great. I would recommend this condo to anyone looking for a place to stay in Chicago.
