Spacious and spotless condo to spread out and relax!

This is a fantastic location just outside of the city on a quiet street but close to everything. The Property Manager (Ross) is fantastic with communication and even after our flight was delayed three times, he met us at the door, gave us a thorough tour of where everything is located, and some great tips on where to eat. It's a $20 UBER to the heart of the city (Millenium Park) and the place is spotless! Highly recommend if you're looking for a place to hang your hat for a few days!

Oasis in the City

What a lovely place! The place is beautiful and spacious. It was absolutely perfect for our needs. The garage parking was an added bonus and the backyard is beautiful. It really is this peaceful oasis in the city. Our charming host has gone to great lengths to make sure his guests are comfortable, from the way the apartment is outfitted to the very helpful guide to stores and restaurants nearby. Thank you so much for your gracious hospitality. We will definitely be back!

Travel to Chicago for a wedding

My husband and two adult children flew to Chicago for a family wedding. At last minute I was unable to attend but had made the reservations. They said the place was spotless with everything needed for the weekend. The property manager met them and let them in and showed them the property. They said the location was great and they highly recommend. They enjoyed their stay.

Perfect Chicago stay

This is a perfect place to stay for a visit to Chicago. The neighborhood is quiet, walkable, and close to both downtown and the suburbs. The host is friendly, easy to communicate with, and shared information about getting around the city, as well as restaurant recommendations. The unit is very clean, quiet, and easy to be in. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of soft towels, which you don’t always get with a rental. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils, and cookware, although no spices except for salt and pepper, which was fine by us, but BYO spices if you’re planning something specific. Having a washer and dryer was a plus and there’s a garage spot in the back that fits a small SUV, which was helpful when dealing with city street parking. Hope to stay again on our next trip to Chicago!

Beautiful property but we had a few issues

Good: Communication with owner was easy, detailed, & responsive. Super nice person. Property was very clean on arrival w/ plenty of supplies. Comes with 1 garage parking spot (very small). Departure was very easy. Bad: Property manager could be called abrupt, rude, & inappropriate. Hoping he was just having a bad week. Two major issues. Night of my son’s formal graduation party (we were co-hosting); very reason we were in Chicago renting VRBO, the drains clogged & toilets would not flush. Property manager didn’t respond until we reached out to owner directly. Property manager arrived very agitated, stating that drain pump only clogs when woman put “personal products” into toilets. I explained to him that all woman staying at house were past the age where they would use those products. When I walked away, he reiterated to my sister & then a third time to my wife, “one of the woman must have put personal products in the toilets”, “woman use these personal products for incontinence too”. Simply unbelievable! We were unable to fully get ready for my son’s event as plumber shut off water w/ no estimated time for repair. Unfortunately, 2 days later we were w/out hot water. When property manager arrived, again agitated, he said to my family “this has never happened in 17 years” as if we purposely blew out gas water heater’s pilot light. Why would we ever want to be w/out hot water? Totally ridiculous! With help of neighbor, he relit pilot & we had hot water next day.
