I cannot say enough nice things about this apartment or hosts. From the start our hosts were easy to talk to and very helpful. We arrived to a wonderful note wishing me well on my first marathon and welcoming me and my family to Chicago. The apartment was gorgeous and well appointed. The hosts were kind enough to leave coffee and breakfast items and snacks for us. Everyone in our party marveled at how beautiful the apartment was, and how great the neighborhood was. Two quick blocks to the L, and lots of great places to eat in the local area. I highly recommend Anna Maria Pasteria for a great Italian dinner!
We didn’t need a car and saw tons of the city by L. It was also a beautiful neighborhood to take a walk in. The neighborhood was of beautiful old brick homes with gorgeous mature trees lining the street. There is a dead end at the end of the street and it’s beautiful for an evening stroll.
My boyfriend and I were traveling with my parents, so the two bedroom, two bath was a must. We didn’t use the bonus space, but it would have been great for traveling with kids, or if a friend needed a room at the last minute (hotel space being tight on marathon weekend). We made breakfasts in the morning, and were able to warm up leftovers for Marathon night when all of us were tired and just wanted to relax.
All in all we were impressed with our hosts and our space. We texted our hosts asking if there was a wine opener. Our host thought so, but was not 100% sure. When we arrived back from our adventures, one was waiting for us at our door. (There was one in the unit, along with plates, cups, wine glasses, and other kitchen essentials.). You could not ask for nicer or more responsive hosts.
If we ever come to Chicago again we would all recommend this unit! Thank you again for a memorable weekend!!
