Everything Fantastic

We stayed for a Cubs game and the home did NOT disappoint. It was BETTER than we expected. The place is completed remodeled and really nice! The mattresses were super comfy, access was easy, and the TV had apple TV. The neighborhood is super safe and has lots of stores (coffee esp) within walking distance. I highly rec this VRBO!

Perfect spot for a family

We absolutely loved staying at this property. We stayed with three children under the age of 5 and everything we could have thought of for our kids was there. My kids especially loved the sparkles in the tub and some of the toys in the apartment. The host did a great job of recommending places we could go and checking in to make sure we were doing okay. The location is great, within walking distance to the train and great parks. Would recommend this spot to anyone witb families looking to explore the city!

Great location, easy to get to from the L and bus, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Hosts were quick to communicate and checked to see if we needed anything. As described in the listing, you can hear a family above but only occasionally. Overall a great base for exploring Chicago!

A Little Gem in a Charming Neighborhood

My husband and I were I town for a Cubs game and wanted to stay within walking distance of Wrigley. This was the perfect spot. The property feels spacious and we appreciated the extra touches like umbrellas and the white noise machines. I can’t say enough about the neighborhood. So many restaurants and shops within easy walking distance and great access to the Brown Line at Irving Park. The owners were easy to communicate with and quick to respond to questions. People highly sensitive to noise need to be aware that this property is split between an upper unit and lower. You can hear typical family noise but it wasn’t overly loud and never went beyond 10:00 p.m. I am very sensitive to noise and had no problem with sleeping. I’d stay here again!

Can’t say enough good things!

This was the perfect location for our family on our first trip to Chicago. The neighborhood is lovely, safe, and there were lots of places to eat and things to do within walking distance. We found free street parking really close to the house every day. The place was spotless, with great amenities, and the host was super quick to answer any questions we had. Overall we had a fantastic experience and I will surely stay here again when we come back to Chicago.

Great Stay!

We stayed 2 nights with children. It was a great space in a nice, safe area of Chicago. I loved all the restaurants and grocery within walking distance. Parking was not an issue, but was not always right in front of the house. The house was very clean and comfortable! The resources about the surrounding area were very helpful from the owners as well. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect for Us

This pristine property met our needs for a long weekend visit to our daughter’s family nearby in Lincoln Square. All aspects of the reservation process were efficient and easy; the hosts’ communications were clear and timely; the unit was fully equipped with all and more that we needed. We would definitely rent again. Only one drawback - parking was difficult. The last night, the closest spot was two long blocks away.

About the host

Hosted by Justin Kreindler

I am a huge fan of Chicago. I love the food, the neighborhoods, and the convenience of having everything nearby. My wife and I have chosen to raise our kids without a car, so we built our lives around the bus and L lines. I am a committed community member, so much so that I ran for alderman (city council member in Chicago). I've worked in most neighborhoods around the city, and if you are interested in venturing out of the Northside, I’m happy to make some recommendations.

Why they chose this property

This is a very nice apartment. Because we often host family and friends, we have made every effort to make sure the place is functional, comfortable, and feels like home. We live upstairs so clearly we love the neighborhood. We are a block from the grocery store, and within two blocks from several great restaurants.

What makes this property unique

Our house is solar-powered. We also offer our guests Brooklinen towels.
