Wonderful informative hosts! The unit was in the perfect location between the loop and the Gold Coast. It's a very comfortable place to stay that was quiet with an incredible view. James and Jeri-Lou are so great to work with and they made everything so easy. The bed was super comfortable, the doormen were friendly and helpful, the extra parking option was so nice to have, and the vibe of the building was uplifting and nice. What a great community to be a part of for our stay. The health club in the building is super clean and well stocked with equipment. The outdoor patio is really nice for reading, relaxing, or walking around the track. We LOVED our time here and can't wait to come back. Any questions or concerns we had were immediately answered. Thank you for being a huge part of an incredible week of our vacation.

This apartment was amazing! The view from the balcony is spectacular, especially at night. The apartment is beautiful and spotless. The hosts were absolutely wonderful and answered all of our questions. They have thoughtfully considered everything their guests will need from laundry soap to a fully stocked kitchen with any appliance you might need. We were in a nice neighborhood, very conveniently located to so many things, including a grocery store adjacent to the building. We couldn't believe the value of this place for the same price you would pay for a hotel. You will not regret booking this beautiful space!

The hosts did a great job explaining the amenities in their condo, in the building, and in the surrounding neighborhood (along with important detailed access instructions). The condo had everything you need for pleasure and business travelers along with great views of the Hancock Tower, Near North, and Lake Michigan. The area is best explored on foot so leave your car parked and get some steps in.

Thank you for the 10/10 and the “go-to” vote—means a lot! We’re thrilled the penthouse felt very clean, safe, and well-equipped, and that the full-size gym impressed. Having Jewel-Osco right in the building makes stocking up easy, and our River North location (Walk Score 100, Red Line—Grand—on the corner) puts great restaurants within minutes. We aim to deliver a true Penthouse experience every stay—can’t wait to welcome you back on your next Chicago trip.
