Great Location and Comfortable
We had a very nice stay at this property. It is comfortable and quiet. The location is great. Museums, restaurants, and The L are all close by. We walked to most locations. There were 3 of us, myself, my wife and my teenage daughter. Enough room for all to be comfortable.

Underwhelming
Overpriced for what it was. The space was uncomfortable. There were no shades on the windows and right next to the elevator which was extremely loud. The door did not close to the street so security was a concern the entire stay. Sadly, this was an unpleasant stay.

Freshmen year family tripโChicago Loop
We recently had the pleasure of staying at JW & Mary's property in the Chicago Loop while enrolling our baby boy at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). This property was the perfect choice for our family of six, spanning three generations. It comfortably accommodated all of us with plenty of space, making our stay both enjoyable and relaxing.
The convenience of the location cannot be overstated. Being in the heart of the Loop, we had easy access to various attractions, restaurants, and, importantly, SAIC itself. It really made travel plans effortless and allowed us to spend more quality time together as a family.
One of the highlights was the wonderful attached patio. It provided a serene escape from the bustling city, allowing us to sit together and enjoy our morning coffees while soaking in the tranquil atmosphere. Whether it was a morning chat or an evening wind-down, the patio enhanced our experience, offering a perfect blend of comfort and relaxation.
Overall, JW & Mary's property exceeded our expectations. The hospitality was warm, and we left with happy memories and a great appreciation for both the property and the surrounding community. If you're traveling to Chicago with a larger group, I highly recommend this propertyโit truly is a gem in the heart of the city!

I took a short weekend girls trip to Chicago for a concert. I stayed VERY comfortable at this beautiful loft in south loop. Super close to public transit, thereโs tons of restaurants across the street, and it is a cozy property. Very happy with my stay here!

Perfect place for a perfect weekend!
Myself and 7 friends were coming into Chicago to celebrate my birthday. This property was perfect!!! Had very comfortable beds, a full kitchen, two bathrooms, outdoor area, and plenty of room for all of us. Felt very safe in the area and especially in the building as there was multiple locks to get up to our room that we could access by a simple tap on our phone. The hosts were extremely kind, responsive, and transparent. My friends and I had a wonderful time and will definitely be back!!
