This lovely property exceeded all expectations and made my two-day stay in Chicago absolute perfection. The property was spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished, and positioned right near incredible local dining and transit. Check-in was seamless, and our host went above and beyond with thoughtful amenities. It is an excellent home base in the heart of the city and I will definitely be booking here again on my next trip!
Location is in the heart of activities located in a historic/classic 4 story building with the apartment being the 4th floor. Call out is there are lots of steps for those with physical considerations. The space is roomy and well decorated. The beds and linens were comfy. I appreciate the patience and quick responses of the management team when I had questions. This was a perfect option for a family weekend.
Super easy check in with a host who is always available via text. The place itself is gorgeous. It is an older building but I find them absolutely lovely and charming, but if you're looking for a 5 star hotel with room.service, maybe go to a 5 star hotel instead. Despite being an older building, the host has updated many areas and the pictures are completely accurate. We were there for a wedding, which we were able to walk to. In fact, we walked everywhere because we were right in the middle of everything. I will definitely book again if we ever end up back on Chicago.

The unit is in a very good location, close to downtown and the L train. The unit is nothing fancy, but it was comfortable. We had a big problem with parking, however. The owners advertise that covered parking is included with the rental. What they failed to tell us that it was just a spot they rent through Spot Hero. On the way to Chicago, they sent us a QR code to get into a ramp 3 blocks from the unit. Unfortunately, the QR code did not work. With several cars behind me, I had to use my credit card. In the end, my free parking cost me 44. It could have been much higher if I had not re-parked the car. I understand that glitches happen, but the owners refused to reimburse me for the 44 in spite of several requests.
This property was a really good value for what is a very desirable River North location. Parking was included via QR code at the parking lot diagonally across the street (spots are tight, but free parking in the area is a real bonus). The hosts are very responsive, and aside from VRBO auto filtering critical information from almost every message (had to move dialog to email and text at times) it was mostly pain free. Beds are comfortable, and the property is as pictured. Few notes: the host will want to confirm your ID, and CC details during pre-registration. The location is loud due to this being an older property - just bring ear plugs. Having said this, I would stay here again for the location and space.
Room was clean and our communications with the host was excellent as they got back to us quickly on all our questions. Just missing written instructions for check-in, check-out, and misc information. Overall a great stay.
Cozy and clean apartment. Location is very central to everything and situated next to a couple late night venues, so some city noise but wasn’t loud enough to be bothersome. Great communication with the host. Overall very good value.
