Loved our stay! We stayed for two days for a concert at Aragorn Ballroom, and the location couldn’t have been more perfect! Jim kindly provided recommendations for places to eat, and the apartment was so spacious and clean! Would absolutely recommend this place and would stay again in a heartbeat!
Beautiful and clean property. Great host and even though it was the bottom floor it was stompy or loud above us. Just a great Andersonville spot overall
Absolutely lovely place. Clean, modern, full of all the amenities that you’d want. The neighborhood is great too and very good location for our needs. Would absolutely stay there again.
Very pleased with our stay here and would highly recommend! It was the perfect home for myself, my husband and our adult daughter to stay for her graduation from Loyola. Not only was it a short distance from the campus, we also had tons of excellent dining and retail options nearby to enjoy. Andersonville is a gem! Jim is a fantastic communicative host and the home is impeccably clean and well decorated. Building and unit felt secure and parking was easy. No complaints and would definitely stay here again!
One of the nicest places I have ever booked! Fabulous decor and neighborhood is very family friendly and LGBTQ friendly and walkable. The place is spacious, modern, charming, and spotless! It has every amenity one needs. The bathroom is wonderful and kitchen was great! It is 2 blocks to the main drag of restaurants and shops. Grocery is one block away. The train is 5 blocks away.
Lovely apartment, very comfortable, and within walking distance of the north end of Andersonville (grocery store, restaurants, bars). Also a very quiet area! The host was very responsive to any questions or requests.
Great place to stay! Very nice 2 bedroom apartment with great amenities. The apartment was perfect for our needs, clean and in a great location. The host communicated well throughout our stay and we will most definitely look to stay here next time when are in the area.
I chose this unit because of the location near our son & daughter-in-law's house. Was 1 block away and perfect for a weekend getaway in the big city. The pictures were spot on and the host ( Jim ) was outstanding. Everything was clean. Check in worked perfect. Have given the Vrbo info to our son for his friends to use if they come for a visit. Way nicer then a hotel! Thanks again, Tom & Jan.
This is a wonderful place--thoughtfully furnished, impeccable condition, perfect location (with accessible on-street parking) with quick access to public transportation. Andersonville shops and restaurants are a block away, and the neighborhood is calm and pleasant. It can't be beat!

Thanks John
It was a pleasure hosting you. You are welcome anytime!! 😁
We had a nice stay. It’s an easy to walk to great restaurants, shops, and The Edge Theater. It had all the amenities in Chicago style. Very clean, booking and communication was easy and responsive.
Expensive but immaculate and aesthetically pleasing apartment in a very nice area. Reasonable drive to downtown Chicago and plenty of food/drink options in the Andersonville neighborhood.
Quick and easy to get to and into the property, plenty of street parking. Space was fresh, clean, with plenty of space for our family of 4 to enjoy together or seprately after a fun day exploring the neighborhood. You’ll love it!
