Delightful space

Great place to stay. Very bright and filled with light, despite being a basement apartment. Generally quiet, though occasionally get some heavy footfalls from above. Very comfortable king bed, with an extra bed in a separate part of the apartment. It is especially well-appointed with appliances--full stove/oven, air fryer, microwave, toaster oven, Nespresso machine, water filter pitcher, and small fridge. Location is the best asset. Is in a quiet, safe neighborhood, and close to all kinds of restaurants and stores, pharmacies etc on Broadway, as well as close to Lincoln Park and the lakefront. It would be easy to get around on the many buses and nearby subway lines, and so you don't need a car. If you DO have a car, it can be difficult to find street parking in Lakeview--might be better to find paid parking nearby. Overall, we really liked our stay, especially the location, and we would be happy returning here in the future. Was very easy to communicate with Agnes.

Perfect little stay-away

Agnes was the perfect, most accommodating host. The little lift (basement) is decorated so cute, so clean and in the perfect location. Will stay here again if we need a place in Lakeview East.

Wonderful, well located property with incredibly responsive host

What a lovely, open basement apartment that is exceptionally well lit, well equipped, and homey. This neighborhood (Lakeview East / Boystown) has a shortage of hotels, and finding a spacious VRBO just 2 blocks from the lake was an unexpected, delightful surprise. Agnes, our host, was immediately responsive from our first inquiry, and our entire stay was smooth and wonderful. We stayed for a week, and so she even offered us access to her washer / dryer halfway through our stay for our clothes and towels. Street parking is in high demand, but you can find it nearby if you are patient. We parked our car once and walked or used easy nearby public transit all week. We also bought groceries and cooked quite a bit in the phenomenally well equipped kitchen, as well as utilizing Grubhub for a variety of great local delivery options. Many thanks to Agnes for a delightful summer getaway with the best host experience we’ve ever had.

Perfect Place

This was the perfect spot to land in each day after adventures in Chicago. Comfortable and cozy. Agnes is an amazing hostess and very responsive any time we reached out. Located just off Broadway, so many good shops and restaurants. Then just a few blocks from the lake and a gorgeous park. Highly recommend!!!

East Lakeview Luxury

You can purchase one of the few free-standing houses in East Lakeview for millions of dollars or you can stay the weekend at this gorgeous separate apartment on the lower floor of one of those special houses. The house and the landscaping is absolutely gorgeous. The apartment is amazing with its own entrance, a beautiful open floor plan, super comfy living room and spectacular bedroom area. The neighborhood is just ridiculous, with the lake a few minutes to the east, Broadway a minute west and easy walks to Lincoln Park and Wrigley Field. Agnes, the host, is beyond nice and accommodating, even inviting us for drinks with her. This place is a must-do if you love Chicago, and, hey Chicago is the greatest.

Top Notch

This lovely basement apartment is even better than advertised. A spacious, smartly decorated, and well equipped space with a separate entrance--in a beautiful single family home on a lovely residential street. With local eateries, donut shop, coffee, etc. just a short walk away. There is no dedicated parking space, but it wasn't difficult to find street parking. When we noticed a water problem in the apartment on our second day, which was related to the torrential rain that weekend, our host Agnes was extremely responsive and equally generous in compensating us for our inconvenience. We would happily return to this charming property!

Delightful Chicago experience!

We had the most amazing visit in Chicago! Lakeview East was a quaint, friendly, safe neighborhood with easy access to other parts of the city using CTA and also walking. The property acceded our expectations! Our family of four had ample space. Property manager was accessible and incredibly helpful with recommendations; beyond hospitable! If and when we return to the Windy City, no need to look for any other properties.

So restful

The space was just as described. The entry was easy and secure, the noise level quiet, the bed very comfortable. We will definitely stay here again. My only advice is that if you are getting a rental vehicle for driving while here do not get a large car/van. The parking is parallel street parking and everyone parks very tight. A large car will either get locked in or not fit in.

Even better than the photos

We absolutely adored this location. It's a basement, but was kept very warm and cozy. The details are fantastic, the bed was comfy, and our family of three felt very at home. Anytime we needed anything, there was a quick and helpful response. The neighborhood is vibrant and close to the lake. I'd highly recommend a stay here.
