Excellent location for all of the activities we had planned. The house was exactly as advertised and the snacks were yummy. It was very clean the host was very responsive when I had a question. The only negatives were the lock box was a challenge to open and the kitchen didn't have paper towels, but other than that would highly recommend to people looking for a city get-a-way weekend trip!

This was one of the best VRBOs we've stayed in. (Disappointed that we didn't discover it before our daughter graduated.) Spacious and clean and convenient to Loyola and Northwestern. Availability of garage parking spot was great!

Good place to stay

The house was quiet, clean, and a great location. We loved the complementary food and drinks. We also loved the short walk to the bus station to get to down town.

We enjoyed staying at The Artist’s Haven for our weeklong stay in Chicago. The apartment was larger than it appeared from the pictures and was well appointed with everything we needed. The art throughout the apartment was not only nice to look at but gave the apartment more of a home-like feel. The owners had great communication with all our needs and questions. We would stay again!

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend in the Artist’s Haven! The location is outstanding. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood yet within walking distance of public transportation and a variety of restaurants. Most importantly, after a full day in Chicago, the apartment was a lovely place to return to rest and relax. The hosts are very responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic location, walkable to restaurants and conveniences. Everything you’d need and more! Also great for someone who works remote, space to not disturb sleeping others. The added benefit of garage space is really helpful.

Beautiful apartment. Very clean. Great art work and very comfortable furniture. Host was extremely easy to contact. Probably should have a light outside entrance door. I did use light on my phone to see key lock. Also since we needed to use living room pull out couch, side windows did not have blinds. When Sun started coming up, so did person on couch. Three older women for the weekend. Since we really did not know where it was located to downtown, it took us a bit getting used to but certainly not fault of host. Took red line to downtown and Lyft or uber home at night. Otherwise fantastic stay. Thank you.

Well kept, spotless and relaxed

This two bedroom second floor apartment was comfortable and meticulously clean. The kitchen cabinets were well labeled and with the exception of a sticky front door everything functioned beautifully. The snacks encompassed most dietary limitations. We had no trouble parking on the street but a rental garage is available with the unit. The neighborhood was safe and perfectly located for our needs. There is an L stop was nearby. Host was promptly available via the VRBO platform. I would happily stay here again as would my husband.
