Great host, very responsive and they were able to make accommodations available for us the exact same day that we had requested them. The apartment is absolutely beautiful, lots of great high-end touches and absolutely perfect for two people since you each get your own bedroom and bathroom.

The second bathroom is fantastic with an incredible rain shower-head and a bedroom with its own fireplace. We absolutely loved the apartment and would definitely stay again, however there are two drawbacks that I think are important to note:

- This really should have been listed as a shared space rather than "entire place". You are staying in the upstairs of the owners place and you can hear everything they say and do, and they can hear everything you say and do. While this didn't impact us, if I were to have stayed here with my wife and friends it would be been relatively awkward. Think of this as staying in two bedrooms in someone's house, not as having an entire place to yourself since there is significantly less privacy than you would get if you were staying in your own place. For some people this might not be a negative, and for us it was totally fine, but it is important to mention.

- No public transportation and far from downtown. This apartment is way off the beaten trail and expect to take a 30-40 minute Uber or Taxi ride to get downtown. The neighborhood is okay but I wouldn't want to walk around late at night, very far from good restaurants, bars, etc.

I want to re-iterate, we loved staying here, it is a beautiful place and the owners are incredibly nice and gracious people. I do think it's important for anyone who stays here to understand the two points I mentioned above. This didn't impact us but it did add ~$250 in Uber and Taxi rides to our week since there is no train within walking distance. It didn't bug me at all that we could hear them and they could hear us, but I was surprised it was listed as "entire place" when you are without a doubt sharing a place, nothing wrong with it, just needs to be updated in the description.

All and all an amazing place, gracious hosts, and it worked out perfectly for us and our conference. I would recommend it to anyone traveling to Chicago on a business trip that doesn't need to stay downtown and isn't bothered by a 30-40 minute commute into town.
