We had a our annual girls shopping trip to Chicago and stayed at this wonderful locatoin! Very conveniently located via cab to Michigan Avenue and State Street shopping. We also did some shopping in the close by neighborhoods as well as enjoyed neighborhood pubs/lounges. The condo is very spacious with a magnificent master bath and beautiful kitchen open to the living/dining and sitting rooms! So much space and beautiful views with a small deck in the back. Great stay, great hostess! We will definitely stay here again!

Owner response:Hi Nancy! Happy New Year! We look forward to having you back for a visit!

We stayed in this condo in Sept. 2010 and Sept. 2011. This condo is amazing. Lives up to the description perfectly. Has a ton of space and large bedrooms. The Master bath and Kitchen are great. Kitchen is well stocked. The coffee pot is a 2-cup but we didn't have a whole house of coffee drinkers. Off street included parking is great and the price is right for us. Cheaper than all of us in a hotel!! Whole foods is 1/2 mile down the street. We have driven around the city with our own car both times but maybe next year we will have to venture out and try the bus! Condo is easy to get to and the owners are very helpful and accomodating! Thanks again Andrea!!

Owner response:Lindsay, Thank you so much. The biggest compliment is coming back and staying with us again. We will get a larger coffee pot!! Andrea

our Chicago vacation

Excellent location and accommodations. The listing description exceeded our expectations. The property was clean and well maintained. There were an on going struggle trying to connect to a Wi-Fi, so I gave up. If you must have it I would ask the owner to help you log in: step-by-step including cable TV setup. The latter is if you have time to watch TV while you are in one of the most magnificent cities! Otherwise the owners were courteous and very responsive to maintenance requests. Lake Michigan is a short walk from the condo. We very much enjoyed the Montrose Harbor as our destination for long walks. A CTA bus stop is at the corner of the block- less that a minute walk and you are on your way to downtown. A charming neighborhood. Parking for one car is available too! That was a pleasant surprise. We did have a few occasions when a tenant from upstairs who introduced herself as the owner of the building stopped by a few times and came across as a much less gracious of a person than the owner of the unit I was dealing with. That was a bit iffy but it did not bother us to the point that we had to address it immediately. A positive experience all in all. Once again- excellent accommodations. You should see the master bath with jacuzzi and stonework in it. Will do it again in a heart beat and recommend it to friends and family! Five Stars! By the way, the price is VERY reasonable. I did shop around before I found this gem.

Owner response:Hi Konstantin, Happy New Year! Hope 2012 will be a great one! We would be thrilled to have you back as our guests! Come back soon! Sincerely, Andrea

Wonderful experience

The apt was exactly as portrayed by the photos. The kitchen is fantastic (well stocked) and we had a wonderful time having breakfast and dinner next to the kitchen. The apt is also near the CTA bus stop and train station. Whole Foods is also within walking distance. Will certainly stay in this apt again should we return to Chicago. The apt should have a door bell though since there is only 1 set of house key and we can't hear the door knock when our other family members return.

Owner response:Oh, thanks so much for the kind words! We are so happy you enjoyed the condo and it was wonderful meeting your family. Congratulations on the graduation as well!! We will have to take you up on the offer to visit Singapore! We love to travel so, it will be on our list of destinations we would love to visit. As far as the doorbell, I am so sorry I didnt explain that it works through the telephone system! You dial and the phone rings and you press 9 and presto the door opens! Next time! We look forward to having you as our guests anytime! Have a nice summer. Andrea

This is a wonderful place to stay in Chicago! We went for a long weekend to see a game at Wrigley and 5 of us stayed comfortably at the condo. It was within walking distance of the stadium and there is a beach nearby. The master bathroom was amazing and the bedrooms are very large. Also, the kitchen is great and we cooked breakfast there every morning. A perfect spot for us! We will definitely stay here again when we visit Chicago in the future. Thank you for everything, Andrea!

Owner response:thanks Dianna!! I am so happy you enjoyed your stay! come back soon!

The pictures DO NOT do the condo justice. It was super spacious and the kitchen was to die for! It was also very conveniently located and I was happy to have a reserved parking spot. Thanks for everything Andrea!

Owner response:thanks Milena! Drive back for a weekend anytime. you are not that far after all!!

Everything was perfect with this rental! The owner had great communication and the transactions went smoothly. She met us at the unit with keys, parking was off street, and the condo was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was well stocked and was very useful in saving some money on our food budget while visiting! The condo was a quick drive into downtown and very easy to get to. It is close to Wrigleyville, restaurants, and grocery stores. We have already recommended it to others interested in visiting Chicago and would definitely stay again! THe bedrooms and bathrooms are huge and we enjoyed using the jacuzzi tub also!

What a GREAT Place! Five of us went to Chicago for a short vacation and this property could not have been more perfect! The owner is very gracious and very helpful. The property is located a short distance North of Downtown in a trendy area with lots of restaurants close by. It is in a very accessible location and is in walking distance of the lake and lakeshore drive. Freshly refurbished, it has beautiful hardwood floors, a wonderful master bedroom/bath, and each bedroom has a very comfortable queen size bed. The second bathroom is spacious and right by the other two bedrooms. The kitchen is FABULOUS ! I will absolutely stay here again! This will be my "home" in Chicago! We all loved it! It just could not have been more perfect.

Owner response:Thank you for the kind words!! You are always welcome back!!
