Clean, Convenient, and Relaxing
The space is well kept, clean, and spacious for its age. Place is well stocked with essential stuff and sweets. Parking on street can be a challenge in the evenings although there’s a spot in the back. If you have a Suburban size SUV it probably won’t fit in back. It is a first floor of three so you’ll hear the other tenants. It’s a great space for a getaway in town. For whatever reason a different address is in the check in info but it’s at the one where the key is, apparently it’s common enough a problem the other address has a note saying go away. Neighborhood seems safe, partner and I walked to United Center without worry multiple times.

This property was perfect for a family stay in Chicago. Easy short walk to the pink line and busses which we utilized. John provided a parking pass and spot behind the residence for our vehicles which was much appreciated! Kitchen had necessary items for meal prep and tons of snacks, teas and coffee pod options. Would definitely stay again.

This is a lovely, spacious townhome, and Taylor St. in Little Italy boasts an impressive variety of delicious ethnic food. The owner answered the phone when I had questions about the check-in process as well as having answered my earlier questions about the bus line and Pink line "L" train to Chicago attractions. The beds are very comfortable too!

This was the perfect place for our family of 6. We loved being in a historic building and still fairly close to the city. There was a parking space for our van which was also a huge plus. John was great to work with. It was really one of the nicest rentals we have ever stayed in. The beds and bedding were so cozy and the amenities were very professional. We would love to come back!

Wonderful apartment and location
The apartment was lovely! We had 3 very comfortable bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. He had snacks for us and coffee which we enjoyed. The property was very clean and the location was fantastic! We were close to Wrigley Field, the bean, beautiful parks, and downtown. We also had excellent communication with the owner. Each time I messaged him, he responded promptly. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Everything was as advertised in the booking. We had more than enough towels and supplies for our stay. The host goes above and beyond to make it a welcoming space.
