Small, quaint, urban, neighborhood in Chicago. Perfect for my husband and I visiting the city and the United Center for a few days. United Center was only a 7 minute drive away. Walked under 5 minutes to Oggi Trattoria on Chicago Ave. for a delicious meal. Cheryl was easy and great to work with and we would stay again.

My husband and I stayed here with our friends for a short weekend trip to Chicago. There were 4 adults. The bedrooms and bathrooms are extremely small. It was difficult for us to get around in the bedrooms to get ready. This space would be better for 2-3 people. Definitely not 4-5. The apartment is also on a second level which I don’t believe was mentioned. Overall the space was very clean and the host left us bottled water and a bottle of wine which was nice. The beds were also very firm. The neighborhood felt relatively safe. We were about a 10 min Uber ride from everything we wanted to do. There’s a nice coffee shop on the corner behind the rental which is nice.

This was the perfect place for our family during our recent stay in Chicago. The apartment was nice and clean. Plenty of blankets and supplies available. My family felt right at home. Only downside is that the bathroom is on the small side with a tiny sink. The place was close to public transportation stops and made it easy to get downtown quick and easy. Overall a great place and our family would for sure stay there again and again. The host was easy to work with and available as needed.

Glaring cons but some Pros

I stayed here with two friends for long weekend. Cons: the pictures listed omit how tiny the bedrooms (if you want to call them that, one doesn’t even have a closet which makes a bedroom a bedroom legally) are. Also the AC is only three window units, bedrooms were still toasty due to them not working that well. The bathroom is comical, the sink which is obviously not pictured is the small thing I’ve ever seen, you can’t even brush your teeth in there, had to use the kitchen sink. Also the owner tried to look nice and leave us a bottle of wine but there was no opener so had to buy one. But here is the MAIN ISSUE: the coded lock to get in the door was broken for over a full day. You couldn’t get in or out. Major problem with safety. Pros: Living room has space for at least 4 adults to hang, everything was clean, location is great.Overall, was not worth 1k for 3 nights for us.

Nice 2 bedroom place. As one has probably read the bedrooms are very small, but the beds are great. The kitchen was well stocked and the appliances were newish and top notch. Living room and tv were nice. Bathroom has a teeny sink, but given the age of the building (late 1890's) it's understandable. Loved being across from the Chipp Inn (the second oldest bar in the city!) Did not experience any noise from there at all. Great prices and nice locals. We did not have a car and had groceries delivered from the local Jewel-Osco market. The street behind the apartment has lots of shops and restaurants which we unfortunately didn't discover until the day we left. (our fault). You will enjoy your stay here.

Happy overall but some things to consider

Apartment was in a good location for us visiting friends in Bucktown but also spending our evenings downtown. Great coffee shop around the corner. Easy bus transportation close by. The living spaces were great - living room and kitchen. Clean, comfortable, all the amenities. The host even left us a bottle of wine and some waters, which were very lovely. The bedrooms, however, are tiny. Perfect for me and my one friend so we each had own room. But for two couples, I think this would be very difficult sleeping arrangements. There is barely any space in the bedrooms to move at all and only enough space to keep one suitcase accessible. And the bathroom is also tight. Shower is ok but the sink set up makes it impossible to brush your teeth or wash your face. I ended up using the kitchen sink for all my bedtime routines. And given that the apartment is really only conducive to 2-3 single sleeping adults (I believe the couch can be used to sleep), it was pretty pricey for the space. There might have been a premium on the weekend we chose because I’ve seen it advertised for less, but we paid a lot considering. Also, the host was very slow to respond if she responded at all. We didn’t need anything crazy - no emergencies, etc, but the lack of response was not what I normally experience from my hosts. Overall, I’d say decent option for a couple of single friends if you book it during a price drop and aren’t a needy guest.

Lovely stay at Cheryl’s place

My husband and I along with my in-laws stayed at Cheryl’s place for two days while visiting Chicago. We loved exploring a new neighborhood, felt very safe, and the place was clean and adequate for four people! Cheryl left us water and a bottle of wine to start off. She also helped us with guest parking permits. The rooms are bit small but the space is tidy and perfectly manageable for a short stay. We would come back again! Thank you Cheryl!

Great West Town Apartment!

We had an excellent time staying at this property. The apartment is clean, had everything we needed, and is in a great location close to transit that brings you directly downtown or to O’Hare. The host was very friendly and even left us with a little welcome gift. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Nice but needs some TLC

So to start off, we were placed in the wrong vrbo. Apparently there are two directly across from each other and there was a mix up. I did contact the landlord and she fixed it almost immediately. Now for the place. It really needs some tlc but it wasn’t a deal breaker. Unfinished baseboards, bathroom door has seen better days, bathroom mirror light just flickers, needs paint touch ups. One night I was only in the shower for no more than 5min and water turned cold. The property is located across the street from a bar so if you’re sleeping in the front bedroom you will hear bar guests outside smoking and talking all hours of the night. The bedrooms are also very small but doable for my boyfriend and I. The location was great and had a nice coffee shop just a 2min walk away. Plenty of restaurants in walking distance too. There were a few games and books which were nice. Overall, it was a decent place to stay for 2 guests for a couple nights but definitely needs some fix ups. I will say the bedroom off of the kitchen had a very comfy bed! There also was a coffee maker with a variety of coffee but we didn’t use it. Great location overall.
