Gorgeous loft in the middle of Chicago's most trendy and upcoming neighborhood. The loft is even more beautiful and way larger ( can easily accommodate the large group) than what is shown in the photos. It was meticulously cleaned and well-stocked. Overall check-in/check-out process and the communication with the host were excellent. Plenty of options for parking nearby if you are arriving by car.
As said the location is perfect if you are in Chicago for a culinary experience. Some of the best restaurants: Aba, Publican, Monteverde, Girl with a Goat, etc. are just within walking distance. Caution: if the purpose of your trip is to do sightseeing of major tourist spots, this location may not be ideal. One-way Uber to Magnificant Mile or Millenium park would run about $25-$30.
Street noise wasn't an issue in spite of the location of this loft being next to some of the major restaurants and a busy street. However; since these apartments are created from an old warehouse or something, noise does travel easily between the lofts. We had a large group next to us who happened to stay up till 2 or 3 in the morning. We could hear everything and was rather disturbing. The host did a great job by providing plenty of earplugs in a jar that came in handy.
overall, it was a great experience and we would probably stay here next time we are in town.
