Wonderful

We had an enjoyable 3-day stay here while in town for college-related events for my son. The host was very responsive and the apartment was cute and clean and the beds cozy. There was an Aldi within reasonable walking distance and we otherwise had Keurig cups and decaf options in the kitchen so we were happy. I would only note that we could hear stomping late at night and early in the morning. Being a mother, I understand how it may be difficult to control the movements of smaller children. However, I would suggest the stairs be carpeted and some sound-proofing installed overhead to minimize noise as this would improve the stay for weary travelers. The stay is being given a 5 star rating for the interior of the apartment itself and the responsive of the host.

Being honest, the small basement was cute and clean. However, the hot water was out and the hot heater was beeping. The owners had to come down a couple times plus whoever needed to fix it. As a home owner I would have compensated part of the stay for the inconvenience.
The property is definitely family-friendly and in a really nice neighborhood walkable to a grocery store, coffee, etc. The only two issues we noticed are the lack of light (windows) because of the basement level and some stomping on the ceiling (owner’s floor) in the morning and sometimes late at night. I would consider staying there again.
The house was super cute and immaculately clean. The only thing we wished was that the ceiling height was included in the listing as they are about 6' ceilings throughout much of the house and my brother in law is just over 6' and hit his head on the ceiling daily. Other than that, the host was fast to respond to our AC issue and even offered to have a tech come out to look at it. The off street parking was a huge plus as street parking filled up quick.
Accommodations were excellent. Couldn’t say enough good about our stay. Host was very friendly and easily accessible. Next time I’m in Chicago, will hope it is available, I’ll definitely be staying there

We had a wonderful stay. The hosts were very friendly and communicated with us. The apartment is very comfortable, and has a lot of quality touches. We were there to drop our daughter off at college and it was the perfect spot. We will be back!
Beautiful little basement apartment for our recent stay in Chicago for a work trip. The apartment was clean and comfortable. The neighborhood also felt very safe and you couldn’t ask for nicer hosts! Would definitely stay again!

Thank you Megan! It was a pleasure meeting you and your coworker. You are welcome back any time!
The property was clean, cozy and accommodating. The neighborhood was just lovely and the host was thoughtful and communicative. I found my stay to be very enjoyable and peaceful. It was my first time not using a hotel and after the experience I don't think I will ever stay in a hotel again. 10/10 would seek to stay again when next I visit Chicago.
A great place! Very clean and has everything you need. We only stayed for a few days but we wanted to stay longer. The host was super nice and welcoming. All the amenities worked well and the beds were very comfy. Some other reviews mention children running around upstairs but it was hardly an issue with our stay, we only heard them a couple times in the morning. Thank you so much for a great stay!
Apartment was as listed, no surprises. It had all the amenities you need, and I mean everything. And most importantly, a space to park your car. Highly recommended!!!!

So glad you had everything you needed. That is our goal!
Everything was perfect. Host was very responsive to questions. Description of place was spot on. Nice neighborhood as well. The host and I actually met when I was leaving to go home and asked how our stay was. Very nice guy! Will stay again if in the area 👍👍

We would love to have you back, and we're glad you enjoyed!
Cleanliness of accommodations is so important to me when traveling and this apt did not disappoint.
An on premise parking spot was also wonderful, rather than having to search for street parking.
The host was also very accommodating. We will definitely stay again when in Chicago.

I'm so glad to hear this, Kathleen. Cleanliness is a #1 priority for us as well!
We were in the area for our child's graduation from Northwestern Univ in Evanston. Limited funds, so needed a good price, safe, close enough to Evanston. ✅✅✅

Congratulations on the graduation! Thanks for choosing our rental, it was lovely to have you!
Every detail was thought of and seen to here. The owners were very responsive to any question. It was incredibly clean, charming, and very comfortable. We were in Chicago to see various extended family and to sight see. This was the perfect home base. All in all it was a wonderful experience. I look forward to staying here again when we plan our next visit.

Thank you Kathryn. I’m so happy you enjoyed your stay and you are welcome back any time!
My husband and I, along with our grown daughter, stayed three nights here. We chose it because of its proximity to Uptown. Quiet neighborhood, and the dedicated parking spot was much appreciated! Beds were comfortable, and plenty of towels were provided. Yes, we heard kids upstairs, but it didn’t bother us. We enjoyed our stay!

We're so glad you enjoyed your stay! Thank you Lynn.
We had a great stay at the little apartment in Mushkey’s house. The neighbor is safe and diverse. We had a designated parking spot! Checking in and settling was painless. Host is very responsive and respectful. We will be back. I put 4 stars for location as it was a bit of a drive to Loyola, as she was getting registered there.

Thank you Sigrid for your kind words! It was our pleasure of host you!
Place was cozy, good part of the city. Only complaint is that the noise from the upstairs lasted most of the night every night. Sounded like kids were running a lot

Thank you for the feedback, Alyssa, and I'm so sorry about the noise from kids. :-( We will keep working on that.
Very nice comfortable and great location. The only negative was the running around upstairs and bouncing of a ball. If your a early riser like us. The noise from upstairs wasn't much of a bother. There are ear plugs in a package in the bedroom, if needed.

Wasn’t what we were expecting.
The pictures match perfectly! However, we were notified last minute that this is actually in their basement.. nothing but a thin door separating the upstairs from the downstairs. You could hear children running around.. for the most part everything was great though!

I’m sorry that you were not aware when you booked that this is a basement. It is in the listing description a few times, but we have now added it into the title, so hopefully nobody misses that important detail. Thank you for coming, and it was a pleasure to meet you and your group!
Nice and well-decorated/renovated 2BR space. At 5’5” tall, I didn’t give any thought to the mention of 6 foot tall ceilings, but my over 6’ tall husband couldn’t shower fully upright. So, make a note if over 5’7”. Quiet neighborhood and nice to have a parking spot provided. Would book again and bring along the kids next time.

Review from husband
Had we known a few things that were omitted, we would not have booked it. We went with my wife's mother who has issues walking and nowhere in the description of the house did it mention a step to enter the house that was 14 inches high. She has issues getting up and down it each time. We also had no idea that the host's children were heavy footed and started very early in the morning and ended very late at night, making sleeping a bit of a challenge. Lastly, I am just under 6 feet tall and because this VRBO is in the basement, the ceilings are very low. If you are 6'2" or better, you could find this to be somewhat tight. We were also not told it was in the basement.

Hi Alison, thank you for your review. I'm so sorry to hear that you did not see those important details when you booked our VRBO, and that it was not an ideal setup for your family. I have moved those details to a more prominent location on the listing, to ensure that this doesn't happen again. Full transparency is important to us! Let us know if there's anything we can do to fix this for you.
