The unit was well supplied and tastefully decorated. The location was perfect - easy transit options nearby and tucked just enough off Michigan Ave to abate some of the city noise. We loved our weekend there!

Great location! The host was very communicative and timely in responding to some minor questions that arose prior to and during our stay. The unit was extremely clean. The unit was also much more spacious than the photo's suggest. It's in an older building, so that means "charming with lots of character" to some potential guests, but "wow, these old wood floors are squeaky" to others. It depends what you're looking for. The layout of the floor plan is quirky; not in a bad way, but more in an "older building that was later reconfigured" way. The updated kitchen was very nice, and the appliances were all great. The primary bedroom has a very soft mattress, which was OK to me but will be a surprise to some. We had a mix-up in that laundry was incorrectly advertised as being available when I booked--and was critical to my decision to book there for a week--but apparently they've corrected that incorrect ad since. We had some extended back-and-forth with the host to figure out how to address that shortcoming, which was ultimately satisfactory, but I was disappointed I had to involve VRBO corporate to get there. The bottom line is that I generally choose bookings for their location, and this one is excellent in terms of proximity to most things you'd want to do in downtown Chicago, yet is on a quiet and very safe residential side street. Overall, I recommend.

Comfortable, convenient location and two bathrooms

Very roomy and clean apartment. Great location for downtown sightseeing or easy access to CTA Comfortable sleeping accommodations. Also it was very helpful to have two bathrooms with showers (Our group included two 17 year old girls) Enjoyed our trip to the โ€œStinky Onionโ€. Thank you for having us!!

Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely apartment in a great location - conveniently located near public transit stops (bus and subway) and two short blocks from the Mag Mile. It made a fantastic home base for us. The floorplan is great - the two bedrooms are well separated and well organized. As a quick side note and aligned with other commenters - the mattresses are definitely on the soft side. That said, we would happily stay here again!
