My family of 4 (myself, husband, son -14, daughter -12) stayed in Chris's place in Sheridan Park for 3 days/4 nights and had the best time in Chicago! I did a lot of research before I booked anything and chose this location because of the free/onsite parking, enough bedrooms for all of us to have our own, and the location close to Wrigleyville. From the time I booked the owner took time to answer my questions in a very timely manner and had the place ready a little early since we were arriving earlier in the day (which was a great surprise, we really just needed to park but since it was ready we were able to unload the car and freshen up before heading downtown)
The apartment is in the lower level of a row house on a darling street in a cozy neighborhood. We were greeted by Jeff and he let us in to show us around. The place is perfectly clean, beautifully decorated and the personal touches (snacks, champagne, pamphlets for nearby restaurants) were much appreciated. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, glasses, silverware, cooking utensils, coffee, creamer, you name it, they had it. There are two full bedrooms and two spotless bathrooms, the 3rd bedroom is off of the living space with two twin beds, enclosed by curtains which was perfect for my daughter. We did not use the washer/dryer but were glad they were there in case we needed them. This may sound silly but I was thrilled to find PLENTY of hangers in each closet! There never seem to be enough hangers and this was not an issue at all :) There were also plenty of towels, washcloths, dish cloths, blankets and pillows.
We spent some of our time Downtown Chicago and some in Wrigleyville. Taking Uber into the city was fast, easy and cheap. The train is approximately 2 blocks from the house so we took it once (the kids wanted to check it out!) We also took Uber to Wrigleyville twice and walked home both times (about a 1.5 mile walk) and felt completely safe and at home in the neighborhood. We mostly ate in the city or ballgames but did walk around the corner to the highly recommended Longacre restaurant our last night there. WOW! It comes highly recommended for a reason! Wonderful pizza, drinks, and top notch service.
We would definitely stay here again!
