Ashley has a very cool set up here. It’s an older home smack in the middle of Boystown with each room it’s own private AirBnb. Aka like a traditional bed and breakfast :). Specific codes for each room so I felt very safe.
Absolutely fantastic location!! Had trouble finding parking the first night because we got in at 11pm so we had to pay to park in the lot, but every day after that, we were able to find free permit parking on Cornelia Ave. (I suggest trying to find a spot before 6pm but I still found one at 8pm on a Saturday night).
Ashley has a great set up for breakfast and even had scones for us one morning! Perfect grab and go for a busy trip.
We drove in and loved being so close to Lake Shore Drive. Ten min walk to the Belmont bus stop which we took to Lincoln Park. I recommend using SpotHero for parking in other parts of the city.
Great restaurants all around (Wake N Bakery, Cozy’s Noodles, etc.) So many gay bars and clubs! But it’s not too loud in the actual AirBnb except for your neighbors moving around.
My friend’s room was much smaller than mine but mine was the perfect space for me! Double bed, mini fridge, books, fans, blankets, place to hang clothes. Shower was a bit small for a person in a larger body but not the smallest I’ve ever been in. Would def stay again and recommend. Not sure if the room would’ve felt big enough if I had someone staying w/ me.
I left some souvenirs behind in my room and Ashley is going to ship them to me, which I super appreciate. She even extended my code for me so I could come back and look for them (I just totally missed them).
