Excellent views from this downtown Chicago condo in Gold Coast area

VRBO Bear stayed here - 06/16/2010 From the minute I walked into the 37th floor condo and gazed out the window, I knew that I had the best seat in the house! The view of downtown Chicago was incredible. I was able to see Michigan Avenue while enjoying my morning cup of coffee. The condo was clean, well kept and has great furniture! The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning came in handy when the weather got too hot! This well equipped condo made my stay perfect! I especially enjoyed the cupcakes and famous Garrett’s popcorn that awaited my arrival - no better way to start the weekend.

You'll love the close proximity to shopping on Michigan Avenue, the Ghirardelli chocolate store, the Hershey store and restaurants to fit every taste bud! Catching public transportation was easy and close by so I really got to experience Chicago.

From beginning to end, the management company was attentive, courteous and eager to answer any questions I asked them, including where the best Chicago style deep dish pizza was! Everyone in my party loved the condo and will definitely be back!

We had a great stay at this condo this past month (8/11) on our trip to Chicago. The location is great- you can walk to literally everything. I loved that whole foods was right down the block. The pool, workout, and lounge/BBQ area were such a plus. We cannot say enough good things about our stay. The laundry and kitchen were also great to have with a family. We would definitely stay again our our next trip to chicago! thanks for making our vacation so relaxing and beautiful!

Excellent location and the views are amazing!

Guest: Amber L. (Columbus, Ohio)
Date of Stay: 09/30/10 Review Submitted: 10/18/10

My girlfriends and I enjoyed this place tremendously! We often found ourselves wanting to stay in for the evenings because our views at night were amazing! Perfect location... literally just a couple of blocks from Michigan Ave and the grocery stores were only one block over. Clean and neatly decorated. The beds were very comfortable. Never had to wait more than a minute for an elevator (that's great for a highrise!). Owners were very helpful and responsive to all my requests. We plan on staying there again next year! If you are skeptical about renting without knowing what you're getting, don't be! Can't go wrong with this rental!

A beautiful place to stay in Chicago

Guest: becky (Sunset Beach,NC)
Date of Stay: 09/17/10 Review Submitted: 09/22/10

There were 2 couples in our group. We had not been to Chicago. This condo was in a perfect location to walk to all of the places we wanted to visit. We never used any transportation except a taxi to and fron the airport. The view from every room in the condo was worth our visit. The pictures in the ads cannot capture the view as it changes during the day and night. It was an extremely quiet place; very well maintained and clean. We would probably ask for the 2 bathroom next time. There was not enough privacy for 2 couples. I would recommend this property to friends and family. Enjoy!

Amazing!!! As soon as you enter the condo you see downton Chicago in all its glory! the pictures do not this place justice. Everything was clean, working, and comfortable. The 24 hour door guys were nice and helpful. And talk about right next to everything? All the major attractions were a 10-15 minute walk away and the "L" was a 3 minute walk away. In the center of everything Chicago has to offer! The management staff was helpful from beggining to end and went above and beyond what was expected! It was the perfect place for a girls weekend and I will be back! Thank you

Owner response:Thanks so much for your wonderful response! We are glad to hear you enjoyed our Chicago Condo, and hopefully we will be able to accomodate you on a future stay to the city. Vacation Rent Chicago Scott, Jo Ellen and Mary Jo
