This was one of the nicest vrbos I’ve stayed in! There was plenty of room for everyone and it was so thoughtfully appointed with coffee, tea, snacks, bathroom supplies, kitchen dishes/pans, etc. I loved all the artwork and beautiful glass decor throughout the flat. The parking spot and passes for our additional car were great. The location was perfect for us. Communication with the host was good too. There was a little noise from the neighbors and nearby restaurants but it was not bad and expected in a city. We’d highly recommend it.
The house is fully stocked with everything you can think of and need, bandaids, snacks, toiletries, washing detergent etc. The Tv is signed into the apps, and it’s just an easy breezy time. It’s located perfectly to restaurants and bakeries. I love the location and the host was very perfect! I would stay again
The apartment is practical and clean, has everything we needed. Communication with John was smooth. Having a designated parking spot in this center location is a big plus for guests with a car.
Our stay at Bella Villa was great. The apartment was very well equipped and was as shown. We appreciated the jar of candy on the counter as a nice late night snack!I would say the only down side is the apartment is over a bar. Being it is in a college area and Thursday night was college night it can be very loud. The bar also had live music on the weekends which was loud. I wouldn't say it is a deal breaker, but you may want to have ear plugs handy for sleeping as some in our party had trouble with the noise. We still had a great time and it does quiet down eventually.
Overall, a fantastic find. Two small issues we noticed at check-in - dirty dishes found in oven and a broken glass in cabinet. Quickly overlooked because we couldn’t have asked for better accommodations. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a vacation in the “Windy City”. The Host was wonderful and quick to communicate! We will be back !!!
We could not have been more pleased with the lovely apartment on Taylor St! The decor and amenities made everything feel extra welcoming and homey. We would definitely recommend a stay!
Plenty of dishes and pans and utensils. So nice to have some snacks and coffee provided!! Great place. Beds and pillows were the best!! Great place we could meet with our kids for a family wedding. Thanks so much!!
It was a great apartment in a great location. The rooms were clean and the kitchen was a good size. Loved the neighborhood and all the food options. Had to uber or take public transport to get anywhere else but we knew that anyways. We would definitely stay again!
Everything was great. The property has everything advertised. The host was great with all communication. The neighborhood around the property has many bars and restaurants but is not noisy. Great stay all around.
