Brighton Park is a largely residential neighborhood on Chicago's Far South Side. Borrowing its name from Brighton, Massachusetts, the area is known for being a hub of trucking and transportation. But, despite its industrial and commercial draws, it's mostly a blossoming residential area home to Chicagoans who want easy access to the city but having a quiet neighborhood to call their own. Brighton Park attracts folks from all across the city looking for a true community to call home.

Ride-sharing apps or public transportation is what we recommend especially if you plan on going into the city where parking is hard and/or expensive to find. A train ride is often faster than driving during peak traffic hours and maximizing your time in the area is key during a short stay.

Parking is usually not too difficult on this block, but can get tighter in the evenings.

Look just like the pictures. Neighborhood was quiet access to home was simple. Only two things I didn’t like. Upstairs was extremely loud all 3 days we stayed. You can hear them stomp up and down the stairwell. The bed in main bedroom is really uncomfortable and hard. Everything else was great location was perfect. Host and back neighbor were welcoming.

Liked: Communication
The place was clean, but it was nothing like it was described. The property manager claimed that there was 3 beds and a sleeping sofa when there was only two beds and a very uncomfortable futon. Two of us had to share a bed which was extremely uncomfortable and unplanned. AC was locked and you could not adjust to your liking instead the manager would control it from his phone which is extremely constricting and inconvenient. I did not get one night of sleep due to the extreme loud noises the neighbors would make super late at night and the random people would come knocking and filtering in and out super later at night (12am-04am). It is definitely not a family friendly place. I would not recommend, especially that you could find much better places for the same rate.

Perfect stay!

This was an excellent stay for my family and I. Family friendly, fully stocked with plenty of amenities, right next to a bus stop and easily accessible. Host was attentive and responded quickly to any questions I had and was ready to help with whatever we needed. We were very comfortable here and it helped us have such a smooth stay here in Chicago. Thank you!

Great affordable place in a not-so-affordable city.

My son and I stayed here for his volleyball tournament. Other families stayed in hotels where they paid $80/day to park their cars. We parked right in front of the apartment and were able to cook meals and go to our separate rooms at the end of the night. I will say that the place is not built for two dudes over 6' 4", but then again, not much in this world is so can't hold that against them. Enjoyed our time there and would stay again.

Fall Break

My nephew and I spent his Fall Break exploring the city (his first time!). The bus stop being right across the street was very convenient, as was the Orange Line stop nearby. Neighborhood is moderately quiet, picks up due to school and local business during the day. Other tenants in building were friendly and not overly noisy, although the structure is older and you can hear a lot, both inside and out. We had a seamless experience with our host, hope to stay again in the future!

A herd of elephants

Property was okay but I noticed a few issues while I was there including ants, broken glass on the floor of one of the bedrooms, hair in the shower drain from previous "tenants", and a shelf in the bathroom that wasnt actually attached. Also, I slept in the smaller room and the upstairs neighbors went down the stairs like a herd of elephants at both 12:30am and then again at 3am. I appreciate Freddy's attempt to help by having earplugs there but maybe a chat with whoever is upstairs regarding their stair usage would be good. Overall I felt the property was overpriced for the actual value. I did message Freddy a few times via tbe vrbo app and never received more than those auto responses. The property had a lot of rules and having a camera staring at me everytime I went in or out was unnerving. I will probably just stick to Hotels in the future.

This is a fantastic budget find. The property is 12 minutes from downtown and it’s close to a Lyft bike rack for easy mobility around the neighborhood ( or further if that’s your thing). However, it was a little musty. It smells like water damage or something along those lines. The property itself is clean so I’m fairly certain it’s not a hygiene problem. Maybe an air purifier would help with this. The second bedroom is also quite small. It has a twin bed (think college dorm but smaller). If you’re under 6 feet you should be fine. Otherwise just sleep in an “S” shape. The neighborhood is in the heart of the Latino Community so the food is good. We did not spend much of our days in the property so I cannot speak to the noise levels after school (there is a school right outside). Overall, I’d recommended this property for anyone looking for a quick affordable option around Chicago. If you’ll be spending your time in River North, Lincoln Park, etc, just be prepared for Uber rides ranging from 22-40).

Weird smell

The host was really nice and let us check in one hour earlier than the regular checking time which was really nice. However, upon arriving the place had a weird smell we thought somebody smocked weed inside the apartment and decided to open the windows thinking the smell was going to go away but it never did, we went and bought a candle for the smell to be better. The bathroom was not clean at all the bathtub is completely black making it imposible to see anything and on top of that the drainage was really bad having dirty water standing for a long time. Something that really grossed us out was looking at the bathroom ceiling and seeing human hair all over the ceiling. You can also hear everything from other neighbors even them fighting, we also noticed that when the neighbors smoke cigarettes the smell comes inside and spreads throughout the apartment and coming from someone that doesn’t smoke this made me have constant headaches making me feel sick all the stay. The pictures was what pushed us to make the reservation but they are not really accurate at all. Wifi was great and being able to watch tv made the stay a little better also washer and dryer are available that was a plus too. Kitchen and living room areas where okay and the connection with the city was great. If owner can improves what was mentioned above and specially the smell it can be a good place to stay.

Weekend in Chicago

It was a nice place, just far enough away from the city but extremely convenient cta stations to get to downtown quickly. The bus station was right outside our door and down the street was the train station at 35th and Archer. You can buy your day passes for public transport there. My son absolutely loved the arcade machine. He said more than once "this is the best place we have stayed in" but he did have one complaint. The second room was underneath the stairs. Apparently the people who live upstairs are up late at night and he said he struggled to sleep. The bedroom door have rear plugs and despite those complaints, he didn't use them. The kitchen was lacking in some supplies but if you need and ask for something, they will get it for you. Try to ask in advance of needing stuff because it's Chicago and it might take them time to acquire it. I always stay in places with a kitchen because I'm a chef and I like to prepare my own meals when possible. I tried to make sure I brought things that I will need when cooking that I don't expect a VRBO to have but I didn't bring a griddle for pancakes and they acquired one for us within 12 hrs. I'd asked over 24 hrs before needing to make them. The thermostat was in a weird place and I struggled to find it. It's behind the standing lamp by the couch. Two people in the main bedroom made us get too warm at night but if you knock the thermostat down a few degrees and sleep with the door open, this doesn't happen. Word limits...........
