Lovely space! We had everything we needed, including extra linens and cleaning supplies, for our stay. Super easy to get in and the host is really responsive. Great location near a lot of restaurants, shops, and public transit. The parking spot behind the building was incredibly convenient and the extra parking passes were useful as well! Great stay, I'd happily come again.

Girls trip in Chicago

Friends who met the first day of college in 1976 chose Chicago for our annual trip and Bella Vista as our accommodations. The apartment looked just like the photos…clean and nicely appointed, in a good neighborhood, close to the city. We enjoyed our visit!

Absolutely amazing!! Don’t miss this wonderful location!

We came for Lalapalooza with our daughters and their friends. The location was nestled in little Italy and absolutely perfect! The owner truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and answered so many questions for me prior and during the visit. The apartment was clean, spacious and well maintained. The kitchen was perfect to make meals before and after the concert for the kids. The WiFi was a strong signal, beds were comfy, and cozy! I can’t say enough great things about John and this apartment. Don’t pass this up! We will definitely be back again for a family trip.

Amazing location. Great base of operations to explore Chicago. Good food in walking distance. Apartment is fully equipped with dishwasher, washer, dryer, two full baths and three bedrooms. The bedrooms are stocked with comfortable robes and the owner provides some snacks and treats which were appreciated by the kids, young and old. Be aware the building is quite old and the walls do not block a lot of noise and the floors are creaky. If you need quiet to sleep look elsewhere. If you want to be in the middle of the action (and hear it) this is your place.

Wonderful spot for our get away

Several great restaurants very close by. Safe location. Little extras (snacks, extra linens, stocked kitchen, toiletries, games, to go menus) were appreciated. There was music at the restaurant next door in the evenings, but that’s to be expected when staying in an area with restaurants.

Perfect Quick Trip

The place is so cute! Looked clean, smelled clean and felt clean! Short drive to downtown easy to get around and plenty of stuff around the place if not going downtown! The rooms were spacious the kitchen was so nice and the living room was the perfect amount of space for 5-6 of us. I would like some shelves or trays in the shower but other than that it was great!

Nice stay in little Italy

Very clean, organized, away from downtown so you dont have to deal with heavy traffic. A lot of restaurants on the same street. Parking in back was a little tight with our big SUV we rented, not recommended for multiple cars. Stairs were a little hard to walk up and down with heavy luggage. Pretty quiet area, except the bar next door on weekends but not too loud. Overall very good experience.
