We visited Chicago for our 1st wedding anniversary - first time in Chicago and trying Airbnb. The Urban Homestead was fantastic! The location was great; we had great food within walking distance and the train/bus stops were basically a block away. We were able to park our car in a secure location and not drive our entire vacation!
The apartment itself had everything we needed - cups, cookware (although we didn't cook), kitchenware, even a Brita water pitcher in the fridge. There were plenty of blankets and pillows and small amenities available in case you forget something (in our case, we forgot sunscreen and it was available). It was nice to have local television and Netflix for late nights once we came back from being out all day.
Overall, our experience was perfect and the Urban Homestead was a great first Airbnb experience!
