In short, being just 2 blocks from the Red Line train, with easy access to three bus routes (one of which stops right out in front of the building) and the Kennedy and Lake Shore Drive Expressways, there is nowhere you can't get to in pretty much a straight shot.

We're 3 minutes from the North/Clybourn Red line and around the corner from the #8 Halsted bus.

Please note the frontline rate shown on some listing sites is for our minimum number of guests and may not include EXTRA guest fees or taxes or the housekeeping fee. Your final quote will include those totals.

We are always there for you!! Communication prior to arrival and trhough check-out will be via a private WhatsApp chat group that we setup for your group. For larger non-family groups, we request everyone be added to it - this avoids issues with arrival, check-in and offers you immediate responses from our team during your stay. This ensures a great stay!

If you're heading to Chicago and looking to be near downtown but want a more neighborhood experience with friendly, knowledgeable transcontinental hosts, our amazing, bright and sunny 1800 square foot loft just might be the perfect fit for you.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

What a bright and open space! The property is well kept and feels like a home not like just a weekend rental. The owners were very accommodating and lovely. The layout is nice and the kitchen was well stocked. There is a bus stop just steps away from the door. I would definitely recommend this as a base when visiting Chicago.

Check in and property information were given after booking to make our group check in a breeze. Fun location with a bit of walking to access the public metro system (the L). Plenty of space and the kitchen size made it easy for our two families to have space.

Spacious, quiet and centrally located

This was a great place to stay for our group of 5 friends. The kitchen and living area had plenty of room for hanging out comfortably. The hosts were always available close-by but out of sight. The kitchen was very well stocked and had a lot of basics. Even though we didn’t cook at all, we could have easily done so with everything they had on-hand. It was super-easy to grab an uber anywhere in the city for a quick ride, or walk to nearby shops for a quick restock. Definitely a place I’d want to return to stay at again!

Girls weekend

This was a lovely apartment with great access. Had a glitch with the refrigerator not working when we first got there, which I would think it would be checked out first, But they were able to fix it after a bit and the rest of the weekend went smoothly. I would stay again.
