We booked on September 22, 2026, specifically because the listing advertised onsite parking. After booking, the host said parking was not included. I provided screenshots of the original listing, and on September 23, the owner updated it. VRBO declined to confirm when the change occurred, only confirming that parking was no longer listed as available. I have screenshots documenting the listing before and after.The owners refused a refund unless we paid an additional fee for cancellation insurance. Our options were to pay the fee, cancel and lose half our payment, or proceed and absorb additional transportation costs. We proceeded because we felt we had little choice. The timing and handling were concerning. We relied on the listing as advertised but were left bearing the financial consequences. Regardless of whether the error originated with the host or VRBO, the refusal to offer a reasonable resolution was unacceptable and added unnecessary stress to our family vacation.The unit was exactly as pictured, clean, well maintained, and quiet. Extra towels, blankets, pillows, coffee and tea, were appreciated. The kitchen appeared well equipped. The shower took a while to warm up, but this was minor. The location was convenient, with easy access the โ€˜L,โ€™ buses, Trader Joeโ€™s, and restaurants within walking distance. Overall, the unit was comfortable. Accurate listing information and a fair resolution would have made a significant difference in our experience.

This Vrbo was located pretty much in the center of everything and felt very safe. Moms were outside watching their kids in ballet long after dark just a few doors down the street. Everything was clean and the owners were very responsive and friendly.

In town for concert.

We booked this location primarily based on proximity to the concert location. I am very glad we did. This was a perfect place for our purposes. We liked the property. Comfortable, clean and well decorated. The hosts were fantastic. We would definitely rent this property again.

Nice stay - wish the AC worked better

Great location in a safe neighborhood! We had a lovely stay, we only faced problems with the AC because the unit was locked and the temperature was rather low for our kids (68-69 F). The manager was responsive up to a point, but the issue was not solved. If you donโ€™t mind having the ability to adjust the room temperature, this is a great place. It was clean and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. Overall, it was a nice stay.

Nice spot, needs improvement

Overall good place in a nice location close to restaurants, markets, and subway. Easy check-in. However, ran into a big ant issue in the kitchen for a couple days and a big water leak in the bathroom, which got everything wet and forced us to clear items out of the room for the rest of stay. Host got maintenance to come in and slow it down but it was uncomfortable to be in the bathroom for long.

Work and Play in the South Loop

I like this place for the convenience and quiet in the building itself (you do hear sirens at all hours but that is in all parts of downtown). This place would be great for a first timer to Chicago with kids in tow. Easy walks to almost all of the great museums. There are plenty of grocery and dining options nearby. I think that any of you that want a hearty breakfast to start the day should go to "Honey Berry Pancakes and Cafe" Lots of variety there. "Grant Park Bistro" looked cool but we never had time to go there. Also, try "Etta" way over in Wicker Park. Visited that place while on the "Pizza City" pizza tour. Also tried "The Gage" one night on Michigan Avenue and it was great. The VRBO property is roomy and my son did enjoy using the gym. There is an old school drip coffee pot there for which I was very thankful.

Average location, poor host communication

The condo was NOT as advertised. It was clean but had NO air conditioning. The host told us but when we arrived and I messaged them how miserable it was the stopped responding. Called VRBO who also tried to reach host but they werenโ€™t answering them either. VRBO did bend over backwards to help us and we ended up leaving and going to hotel. The check-in process was easy and the hosts were super responsive until the A/C issue which was disappointing based on the reviews. Every view out the window was of an ugly roof also but meh.

Decent Condo but some inaccuracies listing

The condo is large and as pictured. The location is great and public transportation is nearby. However, some inaccuracies in the list were disappointing. The master bed is not a queen as listed but rather a double, just as the bunk beds. Additionally, the listing indicates that you can leave luggage in the unit after 1pm but not check-in until 4p, but when we arrived to leave our luggage at 130p we were told we could not gain access to the unit until 330p. Since the listing indicates up to 7 people I would suggest a dining table to seat more than 4 people.

Cute place with lots of storage. Super comfy beds. Easy walk to public transportation and Grant Park, etc. Could use a few more kitchen items like a corkscrew and more coffee cups. That was the only thing we were missing.

Great Spot

The place was in a perfect location and the amenities were what was described/expected. Communication with owners was clear and fast. Easy to find and found in/out parking very close to the location. Plenty of good food/grocery options close to unit. The unit was plenty big for the 7 of us and while a little inconvenient we made the 1 bathroom work. We enjoyed our stay.

Great Apartment and Location!

I had been a little hesitant about this property since it only has one bathroom and we were traveling with 4 adults. But it ended up not being an issue. The apartment has a kitchen and some strategically placed mirrors, so others could still get ready while someone was in the shower. There were also plenty of sleep options. I would definitely stay here again.
