The apartment was cute, clean and very well stocked! My sisters and I really enjoyed our Chicago sister trip there. We liked the neighborhood and took advantage of some of the great restaurants within walking distance. I would book again if I visit Chicago again.

The stay was absolutely wonderful! John is definitely a Super Host who went above and beyond providing the bare minimums. He took time to add all the extras from ample dinnerware/utensils to extra toiletries to a stocked coffee bar candy dish. He really thought of everything. This VRBO has been the best one we have stayed at over the years of traveling. The only suggestion is to plan on driving a sedan/smaller SUV. Parking was a squeeze for our Full size Honda Pilot, which added to the Chicago Experience!

We loved our stay this weekend! The apartment was super clean, very comfy, and well stocked (my kids loved the snacks!). The location is convenient and we had a great breakfast at Sweet Maple and a great dinner at Tufano’s. Easy to get downtown or anywhere else in Chicago when you venture out.

The place was expertly curated for a comfortable and peaceful stay. We also liked the area; great bars and restaurants within walking distance. The host was also extremely accommodating after I accidentally left something in the property after checkout. He went above and beyond! Would absolutely stay here again if ever back in Chicago.

Perfect location where there are many restaurant options just steps away. The host provided personal touches that made our stay feel like home. The beds were very comfortable. The coffee maker is both a drip and a k-cup unit, which was nice. He even provided coffee grounds, k-cup coffee, and creamer. The host was extremely gracious and responsive. I highly recommend this place and I would definitely stay here again. There is one parking spot behind the building and he provides a free parking pass a block away for additional cars. We felt very safe in this area.

A great apartment in a wonderful neighborhood. John was very responsive and check-in was a breeze. The walk-in showers were great and the beds were comfortable. A nice selection of coffees, teas, light snacks and candy came in handy for us. Dozens of restaurants to choose from within just a couple blocks. A reasonable walk to the United Center. Parking spots are a little tight; if you have a larger car, you may have to do some creative maneuvering. Would definitely stay here again.

Bella Villa was an amazing home for our family stay! It was very clean, comfortable, and had lots of thoughtful touches throughout. The location is perfect! Very walkable in a great neighborhood, on a bus line, and a short walk to trains. Communication with the host was excellent! Hands down the best place we’ve ever stayed at in Chicago!

Extremely spacious apartment with every amenity you could need. Plenty of food and drink options feet away. A parking space was a must and this saved us a ton over our stay. The spot was big enough for our ford expedition. The host was extremely quick to respond and was always helpful. Beds are comfy, plenty of dish ware and towels and quiet neighbors making it truly a great spot!
