A cozy rental in a great neighborhood! We were walking distance from so many of the places we wanted to go, but it still felt like we were more in a neighborhood than in the hustle and bustle of the rest of the Mile. The hosts were great at communicating and super responsive. I would absolutely recommend this property.

Great location. Spacious, well equipped space. Loved the Latin sandwich shop downstairs at street level (with a bar). Neighborhood seems very safe and walkable. A charming older building with the character that goes with that description.

The process for check-in was great and communication was immediate for questions. The location is wonderful, close to shops, bars, restaurants and activities. The apartment was comfortable and we even took a Sunday to enjoy watching movies and eating snacks all day on the comfortable couches! I would definitely stay here again - with so much to see and do in the Chicago area, this is the place to stay!

Easter Weekend 2025

We really enjoyed this property - the location was excellent, close to Michigan Ave. shops, restaurants, sights but the street itself was quiet and not crowded at all which made for easy ubers! We walked everywhere and loved it! The unit itself was very spacious and worked well for our family - plenty of sleeping space with king beds in both bedrooms, bonus trundle daybed in the living room and two full bathrooms definitely a plus :) The hosts were great communicating with us before and during our trip - we loved Chicago and would definitely come back to this property!

Itโ€™s a great location. Nice to have the coffee shop in the building. I lived in the city for 20 years and visit often for the day. We were there for a 2 night visit to celebrate a birthday. Beds were great, kitchen was well equipped. It was decorated nicely. It was comfortable for 3 of us. The furniture was comfortable enough. There were things mentioned in other reviews that would be easy fixes. In the primary bathroom there is water damage on the ceiling and paint and plaster are hanging from the ceiling. In both bathrooms the towel bars have been replaced and the other holes havenโ€™t been fixed. There are other things in the apt that are similar - again would be very easy fixes. None of this would prohibit me from staying again.

Great location to see the best of Chicago!

We were very happy with our stay at The Guild. The communication in advance and the check-in process was very easy with instructions sent via email. This is an older apartment building but it has central air which was essential for a late July stay. The living room is spacious, there is a work desk if needed; the kitchen/dining room setup is well appointed with a Keurig and a full supply of K-cups (thank you!); and the bedrooms are good sized with very comfortable beds. The location could not have been better, within a few minutes of the Magnificent Mile and the Hancock Tower with the Navy Pier only a 20 minute walk away. We highly recommend the property.

Good place to stay

This is a nice place to stay. Conveniently located within the walking distance from multiple restaurants, shops and attractions. Upon welcome, the host provided a pitcher with cold water in the fridge, a generous amount of coffee pods to choose from, coffee mate creamers, tea bags. They also offered a generous amount of hand soap, shampoo, body wash and conditioner. In the kitchen they had plenty of dish soap pods and trash bags, which is rare in most VRBOs Iโ€™ve been to. Only one frying pan though and no tapperwear - considering there is a kitchen for cooking, it was slightly inconvenient. The place is generally quiet but you can hear squeaky floors from the neighbors upstairs, sirens and dogs barking outside. There is a nice little cafe Cafecito on the ground floor where you can have breakfast outside. The Ohio street beach is 10 mins walking distance. I found the beds comfortable, the mattresses were firm, no dents (as mentioned by one of the reviewers). The beds could benefit from more natural bed linens but itโ€™s my personal preference. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there. I recommend this place.

Good location/Weird Vibe/Poor Mattress

All in all I am satisfied with my stay. I will warn others, the fact that you have to enter and exit through the service entrance feels sketchy. The mattress in the bedroom with the ensuite had a huge divot in it and made it difficult to sleep without being in a U shape. The location was good. VRBO will hold your money for some sort of insurance. I wasnโ€™t able to get that back into my account until two weeks after my stay (I also had to pay it a month prior). If you are paying with a credit card, expect to have to pay the interest out of pocket.

Great location

This apartment is in a great location. Plenty of restaurants, shopping and a few minute walk to the John Hancock building. The apartment was clean and well appointed and looks exactly as the photos shown. The only reason I took away a star in the accuracy category is, it lists a queen sleeper sofa, however what they have is a couch that simply folds down- not a queen mattress hidden in a sofa. I spoke to the owners and suggested they change the description to reflect this. The building is a lovely older building with a cafe' on the bottom floor and a beautiful rooftop terrace.
