What a bright and open space! The property is well kept and feels like a home not like just a weekend rental. The owners were very accommodating and lovely. The layout is nice and the kitchen was well stocked. There is a bus stop just steps away from the door. I would definitely recommend this as a base when visiting Chicago.

Spacious, quiet and centrally located

This was a great place to stay for our group of 5 friends. The kitchen and living area had plenty of room for hanging out comfortably. The hosts were always available close-by but out of sight. The kitchen was very well stocked and had a lot of basics. Even though we didn’t cook at all, we could have easily done so with everything they had on-hand. It was super-easy to grab an uber anywhere in the city for a quick ride, or walk to nearby shops for a quick restock. Definitely a place I’d want to return to stay at again!

This was a lovely apartment with great access. Had a glitch with the refrigerator not working when we first got there, which I would think it would be checked out first, But they were able to fix it after a bit and the rest of the weekend went smoothly. I would stay again.
