What a fabulous home base in the Lakeview neighborhood!
Our family stayed in James' place for a trip to a Cubs game and we couldn't have been more pleased. The neighborhood was perfect - easy walking distance lots of stores, restaurants and close to a train station. Walkable to Wrigley Field. The main bedroom was spacious, with plenty of room to move around and for luggage. Both bedrooms had ample outlets and charging stations, plus the remote-controlled blackout shades were a nice treat! In every room, James had amenities and thoughtful features that made the stay a delight.
If I had to comment on anything, it would be that you can hear occasional sounds from overhead (the AirBnB is a basement unit) and a nearby train. It was not a problem during the day time, and a fan would be plenty to mask any sounds if you're a light sleeper.
James was very responsive to my questions and requests. Check-in was a breeze. We enjoyed meeting him in the backyard and saying hello to his friendly dog. The backyard is a gorgeous space! This will be our number 1 choice to stay on future trips to Chicago.
