Q: Is the neighborhood safe?
A: Very much so. 24 hours a day.

Q: PARKING?
A: You do not need a car, but there are multiple garages within a block of the home if you drive. They are typically $20-40 / night.

We recommend apps like SpotAngel or SpotHero to find free or cheap parking. There are SpotHero spots near the building for your convenience, available on a first come, first serve basis.

Q: Do I need to bring towels, a hair dryer, or linens?
A: Nope! we provide all these things. Same with hotel-size toiletries (unless I happen to be out, which is rare).

Q: When can I check in or check out?
A: Check in is 4pm and check out is 10am. Early check ins can be difficult if there are guests who checked out same day. We ask for an early check-in, or a late-check out fee, if you request either.

Q: Can I come and go as I please?
A: Yes. And we wouldn't trust any listing with which this isn't the case.

Q: Is the place professionally cleaned between guests?
A: Yes, and we take pride in providing a clean home for guests.

Q: What's my total booking price?
A: We honestly have no idea. With fees included, it only shows the guest how much they pay. This figure should be present after you enter your dates. Note that, pricing varies on a daily basis, and it actually uses some crazy algorithm to adjust it automatically, so I don't actually control this.

Q: Are the beds comfortable?
A: Very. Some guests say they're the best they've ever slept on!

Please inquire if you have a group of 10-20 guests. We may have availability because we have 4 units on the same floor (A FULL FLOOR!) :)

You will be sent all relevant check-in steps along with the house manual through G docs 2 days before your check in. Thanks :)

NOTE: The main elevator for the building is small, but newly renovated. It comfortably fits 4 people so you may have to go up to the unit staggered.

Quiet hours: 10pm to 8am
The base price for this home is for 4 guests only. There will be an extra guest fee of $10 per guest per night if your group exceeds to 4 people.

Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely apartment in a great location - conveniently located near public transit stops (bus and subway) and two short blocks from the Mag Mile. It made a fantastic home base for us. The floorplan is great - the two bedrooms are well separated and well organized. As a quick side note and aligned with other commenters - the mattresses are definitely on the soft side. That said, we would happily stay here again!

Cozy condo in a great location

The condo was in a great spot on Michigan Avenue and gave us easy access to the museums and shopping. Plenty of space with two rooms and additional beds in the living room for the whole family and all the amenities needed during our stay. The owners were easy to communicate with and made the booking process easy. If you're looking for a great spot in downtown Chicago, definitely consider the Guild #1.

Clean Great location Attractive Well equipped Bathtub in hall bath was slow to drain Thermostat was set at 67 and we could not manage to change it to 74 or so, so we turned it off most of the time. It was difficult for us to open the lock box to get the key - maybe just new to us

Great downtown apartment!

Great place to stay in the middle of the city. We usually stay at the Hilton Magnificent Mile, and this ended up being about the same price but much larger space, full kitchen and separate room for our son. The apartment was clean and sufficiently stocked. Communication from the host was prompt and the home instructions were easy to understand and follow. I'd recommend anyone to stay here!

Perfect location for visiting Chicago!

My family and I stayed here for a mini vacation in Chicago. The location is wonderful - easy walk to the lake, Navy Pier, shops on the magnificent mile and restaurants everywhere! The apartment comfortably slept the five of us. The kitchen was equipped with what we needed for the few meals we ate “at home”. ( why cook when on vacation?) Check in was easy. Communication with the host was always promptly answered. We had a wonderful mini vacation!

Great place in Streeterville

Older building in fantastic location. Property was clean and as advertised. Some deferred maintenance and upgrades need to be addressed to make it 5 star. No ice maker in fridge, bulbs out here and there, broken chain on paddle fan, dead batteries in TV remote. Again, nothing that spoiled our stay but apartment needs a thorough maintenance check up. Fantastic Cuban cafe on ground floor for breakfast and lunch. Park and lakeshore trail very close. Mag Mile shopping and restaurants galore.

Location great

The location was great! Very spacious unit. Good hot shower with great water pressure. (A big plus for those who care about that.) Towels were nice and fluffy and soft. (Could use more washcloths, only supplied one each guest) King bed in main bedroom was very bouncy and no support. Maybe a better foundation would Help. Other bedroom had much better bed. So 2 stars for beds. Unit has so much potential! Furniture was very cheap and basic, could use some better sitting chairs to relax! At the end of the day we had no where to prop our feet up. Definitely invest in more lounge chairs for your guests. Building was decent. 5 stars for location.

Great location

So to start out with the positive: The location was fantastic, right near shopping and great restaurants. The Cuban food located on the bottom floor of the building was amazing. It's only a 10 minute walk to the red line. The beds were large and very comfortable. Some things I wish I would have known about the property before booking: The building is older and the floor is really creaky when you walk on them. There was no batteries in one of the remotes for the TV. We ended up buying some. The internet is a little slower. So we had trouble streaming videos on our phones and laptops. The ceiling fan in the room across from the front door doesn't work. There was one box fan that we found in the other rooms closet. There is only one key fob to get into the building. So if your group spits up you might need to coordinate getting back into the building. You do have access to the laundry room in the basement of the building which is free, but there is no place to buy laundry detergent there. You will have to purchase it yourself at the store.
