Cute, modern apartment in convenient location with parking!

Our family recently stayed in Serenity of Evanston, and had a great stay. The location of the apartment is great, within an easy walk of a number of shops and restaurants, as well as both an L station and a Metra station. The lakefront and Northwestern campus are also a reasonable walk away; the Evanston Farmer's Market was an easy walk on Saturday morning and very worthwhile too. Yet despite the in town location, there's also reserved indoor parking, which just can't be beat. Basically, you can get wherever you need to easily by walking, car, and/or public transit.The apartment is modern and in very good condition. It's not large by any means -- some parts of the apartment felt a bit cramped -- but it was big enough for our family of 3. All of the standard stuff is there, including -- quite importantly -- a washer and dryer. The property managers were exceptionally responsive, always responding quickly to any questions I might have.Do be aware that the apartment is very much "in town": despite very good soundproofing, you will get city sounds. In particular, you will hear the Metra trains going by at various times of day. We didn't find it to be at all bothersome -- and the trade-off for the great location was well worth it -- but it's something to be aware of if you're sensitive to those sorts of things.Overall, a great stay.

Fantastic place to stay

This was the perfect place to stay to enjoy a girls weekend with my nieces. Close enough to Chicago to drive in for the day but far enough away to not deal with the craziness of the city. This place is soacious, comfortable and had every amenity we needed. The pool was a huge hit with the girls. The beds were comfy! Would definitely stay here again.

Would have been great with better window coverings

The window coverings in this unit were terrible. Cheap bent mini blinds that don’t close all the way which wouldn’t have been so bad if the primary bedroom wasn’t literally 2 walls of windows. Street lights at night beam in, sun before 5 AM with eastern exposure. Literally slept 2 hours the first night then spent and hours taping thick paper to the windows. Many rentals have subpar window coverings but this one takes the cake. Otherwise, this would have been a great place, was hoping to stay again as our daughter just moved to Evanston but no way.

Great property!

We loved the condo! Beautifully furnished and very close to great restaurants and Northwestern Univ. I have recommended it to family who travel to this area a few times a year. I had a few questions at first and all were answered quickly and clearly. Thanks for making our son's graduation weekend even better! Highly recommend!

Great stay and perfect location!

Overall, this property is one of the best properties we have rented from VRBO. Communication with the manager was excellent, easy with almost immediate responses. We stayed here for 5 days. The unit itself was bright and welcoming, spotless, well appointed and well equipped/supplied. Furniture, including beds, were very comfortable. Shower pressure (in both bathrooms) was amazing! Check in directions were clear and the process was a breeze! Parking being included was a bonus. The location was perfect for us as we were visiting Chicago as well as points north. Grocery stores, restaurants, shops and the lake are within easy walking distance. Don't hesitate to rent this amazing unit!
