Wonderful Chicago visit!
The Penthouse condo is in an ideal location, with unbelievable views, central to all of the best Chicago sights and scenes. Easy access the the CTA station right out the front door of the building, or an easy walk or short Uber ride to all other city spots. The condo was spotlessly clean and the host, Jeri-Lou was helpful and very responsive. We will definitely book the penthouse condo again!

Excellent Location, Very well equipped condo
My daughter & I had a wonderful time enjoying the spaciousness & location of this condo. The hosts were responsive when contacted. It was very well provisioned & was immaculate when we checked in. It was walking distance to almost everything we wanted to visit including Millenium Park, The Museum Campus, lots of excellent restaurants. Having a Jewell grocery store next door was an added bonus. I would stay there again for a return visit to Chicago.

Great homebase for exploring Chicago

Perfect place to stay in Chicago
Starting with the remarkably helpful check-in process, the whole stay was amazing. Great communication with managers of the apartment, beautiful place, marvelous view, great workout facilities, close to an insane number of fabulous restaurants, just above a Jewel supermarket, and right at an entrance/exit to the CTA red line subway station. Short walk to Michigan Avenue, Grant Park. Much more. I'm getting tired of typing. Thanks so much Jeri-Lou and James!!

This property was great! On the 53rd floor, we had a view of the fireworks on Navy Pier, the iconic Chicago Theater, among other famous landmarks. The directions to parking and entering the facility were very precise, and the condo was very roomy and comfortable. I would stay here again!

Rooms with a view
This property was everything we expected and more. The view from the 53rd floor was amazing, especially at night when the surrounding buildings lit up. The location was great. We either took the Red Line on the corner (very easy to navigate around town) or walked to nearby sights, restaurants, and the lake. The apartment was perfect for the 4 of us. The pool was refreshing, and the kitchen allowed us to have breakfast there before heading out, plus cocktails and snacks in the evening. The staff was very helpful. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone spending time in Chicago.

Room with a view.
The view at this penthouse will not disappoint—It is magical beyond words and the balcony provides an opportunity to enjoy Chicago in a way we had never experienced before. Just a couple of downsides. The bed pillows in the smaller bedroom were rocks! Fortunately, there was an extra pillow in the linen closet. And, the sofa needs to be refurbished as one sinks to 12” off the ground when seated. Our hosts were perfect in every way and we look forward to returning.

Wonderful space with beautiful views, and a fantastic location!
The property gave us such easy access to so many things around Chicago. The building itself was very friendly, including the wonderful doorman! We spent lots of time out and about exploring (and eating), but also enjoyed hanging out on the property for morning breakfast, as well as evening card-playing. Having a grocery store/liquor store attached to the property was also a huge help! The property owners gave us great instructions, not only on how to access the building, but also links to helpful sites for our visit. We love coming to Chicago and will definitely stay here again!

Chicago 53rd Floor Apartment
.We are a retired couple who have had extensive rental experiences. This property has a doorlock along with a deadbolt for entering the condo/apartment. We felt safe. One evening we had a series of knocks on the door and the person was inebriated and obviously knocked on the wrong door. Be advised that this location has many units most of which are rentals by young professionals by the look of the people we met on the elevator. You will also encounter dogs on the elevator. The two-bedroom unit does not have curtains to darken the bedrooms. There is a light issue for sleeping. All linens are standard and adequate. The furnishings are dated but functional. All rooms were clean with the kitchen very fully equipped; unfortunately, the refrigerator began making a loud noise and had to be replaced during our stay. The owners/staff/maintenance were prompt in that regard. The location was excellent. Unfortunately, we felt quite unwelcomed by the host/owners as reflected in the email communications we received. They were full of admonitions. The first sign you see upon entering the condo does not say “welcome” it says “take your shoes off and don’t scratch the walls with your luggage”. Future guest should be forewarned that in order to stay in this VRBO you will be required to send your driver’s license over the internet. We never had a requirement to send our driver’s license before. We had concerns about identity theft that were not addressed by the host/owner.

This condo is located within walking distance to all the tourist attractions and very close to the red line. The VRBO is clean, well-stocked and very comfortable. The owner’s expectations and instructions were very clear and they even checked in us a couple of times. I definitely recommend this rental and would stay again.
