Great location!

This property is in a great Oak Park location, easy walking distance to a fabulous local breakfast at Publican as well as other restaurants. Also easy walk to Dunkin if that’s more your style. Host is very responsive and great to work with. Nice sized kitchen, comfortable beds. Not a lot of counter space in bathroom. Backyard is nice place to relax in the evening. Street parking is readily available outside of school pickup and drop off.

Wonderful destination!

The flat is located in a wonderful neighborhood with small, beautiful houses with wonderful gardens and some of them take the opportunity to point out poeple´s rights. We loved to read the signs and statements. The flat was very nice equipped, had a useful kitchen, a very beautiful bathroom and we felt like beeing at home. Coming there from a long successful day on sightseeing in Chicago we loved it to stay there or sit in the garden or make a little stroll through the streets. Thank you for the this good opportunity!

Friendship getaway

Very happy. Property is the lowest level (basement) but has windows, A/C units and two doors. It’s a beautiful space although it’s not a space for tall people! Smaller shower but the water pressure is wonderful with a big shower head. The beds were super comfortable and the neighborhood was peaceful!

Terrible

We did not stay there, the property was in terrible condition, the house was under construction and they did not notify me until the day of check-in. It is an old , dirty and smaller apartment, they charge too much for what it really is, the kitchen was very greasy, in the children's room there was a large hole in the window because the air conditioning was not screwed on, apart from being full of dirt and flies. It is nothing like the photos on the platform. The construction material was lying everywhere outside the apartment, including a cable hanging on the door, which we had to move to get in. I do not recommend it at all.

Disappointing… wasn’t for us.

We expected more unfortunately - the property is a basement apartment which we knew from another review - but it was run down and wasn’t what we expected especially not from the pictures - it wasn’t as spacious as we expected. The ceiling in the bathroom is very low - so expect to knock it whilst showering. There’s no sound proofing so you can hear everything from the floor above, from the creeking bed to people walking around and dropping things etc, you can hear a lot! There is a shared washing machine and dryer but you do need to pay for it, it would have been nice to have been told this in the actual ad, the washing machine doesnt clean well - also bring your own detergent. On a positive, the neighbourhood is lovely and many local amenities nearby and about 25 minutes to downtown. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a five star experience for us.

Lovely Stay in Oak Park, IL

The property was relatively clean, and adorably decorated. The host was extremely prompt with communication! The only downfall being I was unaware that the property was a basement apartment. The entry doors for both front and back doors were below ground level and hidden from view. For two females staying in the unit, I was a bit uncomfortable. If traveling with my husband, or a larger group, I would definitely return.

First impressions when you arrive? Ignore them. This basement apartment was clean, expansive, well stocked, centrally located in Oak Park, and a good size for our family of four. I thought it was a stellar little joint!

Great stay

Good and clean place to stay., Quiet neighborhood. The only thing is that the place is tiny and located in the basement, very little of day light gets in. If someone needs a good morning sleep, you got it. Other then that comfortable for 5 people. Thank you.
