Home was exactly as described!! Clean, spacious, and the neighbors even said hello(doesn't happen often at other places we have stayed). Being able to park in the back was a nice touch. Never staying in the area before it was easy in and easy out. check-in went smooth and the host answered all my questions! Would stay again!!!
The place was very neat and clean. I was traveling with my 85 yo mother and a cousin with a bad knee so, the stairs to the third floor were a bit of a challenge. I’m not sure if that was mentioned in the listing or if it was something that I missed. Would have liked more towels and could not get the oven to work. Otherwise, it was pleasant.
We had a nice stay at this Chicago apartment. It was clean, exactly as described and spacious enough for our family of six. The little extras like towels on the beds with chocolates, complimentary starter toiletries, water bottles, Kcups for the coffee maker and snacks were a very nice touch! The host was helpful and took our call to explain parking and the entry code, which made check-in easy. The neighborhood is not far off the freeway, but we never felt unsafe. It’s about a 15-minute drive downtown (around a 30 Lyft to Millennium Park).Our only suggestions would be better bathroom mats and possibly adding a second deadbolt on the main entry door. Overall, we’d recommend it to groups looking for a clean place to stay close to downtown.
Our Host Stephen was ready and prepared for our arrival beginning with great communication. Wet were well informed about how the ins and outs and assured about parking. All living spaces were clean, presented well with nice touches creating a feeling of being welcomed into the space.The few concerns that arose were met with solutions immediately allowing us to rest assured we had nothing to be concerned about other than enjoying our stay. We would definitely consider staying again and sharing the property and host as a reliable option with friends and family..
