About this property

🌟Spacious|Inviting 2BR Heart of Lively Lincoln Sq🌟
Located in the vibrant neighborhood of Lincoln Square, just a few min from an array of amazing restaurants, breweries/bars, the Davis Theater and unique shopping boutiques. Start your mornings off right by taking a walk to Cafe Selmarie for a delicious breakfast, one of our favorites! Getting to Wrigleyville or downtown will be a breeze with easy access to the Brown line. Professionally designed with stylish decor, comfortable bedding, and smart TV with Netflix will make you feel right at home.
Guest access *There is free street parking on Eastwood Ave on a first come first serve basis. Please be sure to read all the street signs, tow zones, before parking to avoid tickets and tows.*
During your stay at our apartment you will have full and private access to the entire apartment on the 2nd floor. You will not have access to other common areas of the apartment building. Due to previous guests not following instructions we have restricted access to the back patio. You can only use the back door as an exit or entrance. You may not loiter on the back patio. None of the chairs or other items on the patio are ours so you would be disrupting our neighbors and using their property without permission. No smoking in the unit also applies to the back patio as well. Check-in any time after 3 pm and as late as 11 pm, check-out at or before 11 am.
Other things to note House Rules:
We strive to make your stay with us as great as possible and in order to ensure that we exceed your expectations we have some rules that will make sure your visit goes smoothly.
-This apartment is located on the second floor which requires walking up 2 flights of stairs.
-Do not use our towels to remove makeup or anything else that will stain them. If our towels are permanently stained we will charge a fee to replace them.
-There is no thermostat in the apartment, the heat is controlled by the building. It can get very hot at times.
-Take care of our space and the items within it. When you arrive, we ask that you REMOVE YOUR SHOES before entering the apartment to avoid damaging the floors, rugs or carpet. We will charge you a $150 fee for professional cleaning if we notice any damage is done to the rugs or carpet. During your stay treat our home as if it’s your own, do not damage anything within the unit. Do not leave food out without proper containment because it will attract insects. If any damage has been done to anything in the apartment we will charge a minimum $300 fee to replace/fix what has been broken. Prior to your departure, do your best to tidy up by throwing garbage in the waste bin, washing any kitchenware (cups, plates, pots, pans, silverware) that you used, placing towels in the hamper, and leave the room in overall good shape to make the cleaning process more efficient. If an excessive mess is left after your stay which requires us to spend extra time cleaning it we will have to charge an additional cleaning fee ($50/hour or more).
-Keep track of your keys please. Losing the keys that you will be provided could cause a host of issues and potentially put a damper on your trip. Please do your best to know where they are at all times. If keys are lost or not returned to the lockbox we will unfortunately have to charge a $300 dollar fee to cover the cost of changing locks and having new keys made.
-No partying. We have strict rules against partying in our apartment and having guests that are unaccounted for when making the reservation. We do not accept reservations for people intending to host bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthday parties, or any other kind of party. If there is any evidence of smoking in or around the apartment, illicit drug use, excessively loud noise after 10 PM, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation immediately without refund. We have a very good relationship with our neighbors and intend to keep it that way which means noise levels must be controlled so they are not disturbed. They will notify me if there is any evidence of these activities occurring during your stay. If we find any evidence of smoking in the apartment we will assess a minimum $300 fee to restore the apartment to its previously smoke-free condition.
-No pets allowed. A fee will be assessed if any pets are allowed into the unit, and will also result in an immediate cancelation of your booking without refund.
-Parking. There is free street parking throughout the residential neighborhood however you can access the whole city through the CTA train nearby so we would definitely recommend saving the money you'd spend on a rental vehicle if you have the option! License number R21000069659
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a dining table.

The host was very helpful.The temperature can be well-controlled using the window air-conditioners.It has creaky floors, and the apartment above does too, and the train is in direct sight, about 40 yards from the bedroom and living room windows.It was mostly pretty clean. The blinds were venetian style with horizontal slats, and some were broken and didn't raise up.

Visiting from Texas
The listing was accurate and the location was great! Lincoln Square is a great neighborhood with easy access into the city center by train and other neighborhoods by bus. The apartment was warm during the cold weather and the pillows were extra comfortable! We highly recommend this stay.

Pleasant apartment in a great location
This vintage apartment is well-sized and in a great location, just steps from the brown line and the restaurants of Lincoln Square. The kitchen is reasonably well-stocked with dishes and cooking implements, although it is cramped and there is no dining table or comfortable place to sit down and eat in the apartment. Beds are comfortable, with nice bedding. Air conditioners are effective although noisy. The apartment, especially the bathroom floor and the living room rug, was not entirely clean - an issue I conveyed to the owner so hopefully it will be remedied in the future. The location is excellent, but be aware that you will hear the train rumbling by. Overall, a fine place to stay, at a reasonable price, in the heart of Lincoln Square.

Well appointed and charming apartment
The beds were wonderful and the was coffee greatly appreciated! High quality kitchen and linens. Pretty squeaky floors, but that can't be help in classic Chicago area apartments. We would stay again.

Chicago for the first time.
We had a good time. The keys took forever to open the doors. Most of the time it was hard to find a parking spot. But the place was clean and cozy. Thanks for letting us stay.
