The building was constructed in 1893 by a banker as a private mansion for his family. The ceilings are high and vaulted and the ambiance of the whole place feels warm with old world charm. We're on the 3rd floor and there's no elevator; so expect to walk up a few flights of stairs.

You'll notice right away that the place is HUGE. 2,300 square feet with a gigantic living room, including a bar with refrigerator, TV and bar stools, city views; perfect for pre-gaming or socializing among your group.

In the living room, there are 3 futon couches. These futons fold into full sized beds by just lifting the seats up.

All linens, pillows, towels are provided, so all you need to do is show up.

Great space for a family to spend time

we had a group of 5 adults and a toddler-2 of us needed to work during the day and the WiFi was great!There was ample room to spread out and be away from each other when necessary- however the dining and kitchen areas were nicely updated and allowed us some super family meals. Beds were comfortable in all four bedrooms- and the baths were updated. Be prepared to climb three flights of stairs with your bags-and the parking spot- while convenient, is a pita to use-pretty tight quarters. Good value for the money- I would highly recommend.

Chicago trip

The property was BETTER than advertised! The location and everything you needed was included to make it great. My son "ran" into the owner outside and he was as gracious as can be. I would recommend him and this property to anyone. It was actually a pleasure to stay there.

Great Property

Five star. Fours guys stayed 2 nights. We each had our own large comfortable bed and bedroom and shared two bathrooms. The unit was very clean and is a 20 minute walk (about a mile) from Wrigley Field. Property location is on a dead end street and therefore quiet. When we arrived, the one parking spot was occupied but the property manager was immediately responsive and a handyman removed his car within minutes. A manual for operation of the televisions would be useful.

Great location

We went to visit our son and his family. The location was great in that it was close to them, Lake Michigan, restaurants, and downtown. We took the bus to downtown/Navy Pier, and it couldn't have been easier. Three generations of family stayed in the vrbo., including young children. The apartment was VERY spacious and comfortable. It had all the comforts of home and all the amenities we needed. Our only complaint was that the coffeemaker hadn't been cleaned. We would definitely stay there again.

Excellent Stay

We were cautiously optimistic about this property given the number of beds, but it was very clean, plenty of space, well kept. Will was very responsive from the time we booked to even when we were staying at the property with any questions or concerns.

Family Trip

Will was very responsive and helpful before and during our stay. The location was perfect! We parked our cars and didn’t move them until we left. We were able to walk everywhere. Bus passes were super affordable and bus stops were easy to walk to. This apartment is big! There was plenty of space for our family. I would caution anyone who struggles with stairs though because there is no elevator. The back stairs are narrow and spiral. The front stairs are wider and not spiral. Maybe bring two smaller suitcases instead of one big heavy one…oops…I apologized to my husband for that mistake. Lol! We had a great time! Highly recommend!
