The host is one of the greatest I have ever worked with. This is a great location and the host is the pièce de résistance, worked with us every step of the way. Thank you so much
Close to Everything, short 1&1/2 block walk to bus stop. Host was great with communicating with us. Clean and inviting! Great decor! Safe neighborhood. Would definitely stay again!!! Bonus was the Chipp Inn tavern across the street.
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!
We were quite comfortable with the short time we stayed. The coffee and water were a very thoughtful gift. The blankets and towels were plentiful. The host was very thoughtful when she saw we were traveling with a toddler and gave us a folding sleeping crib.
Check in and out was super easy. Is great location for The Salt Shed, and downtown is a short ride or slightly long walk depending on destination. Bed was comfortable and space was clean and well appointed. Host was so kind to have wine and bottled water available in the fridge. Would stay agajn.
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.
A plus for some is the Chipp Inn bar, historic! Really we only heard minor noise and that was because we had windows open. The place was very clean and has space in the living room and the kitchen table to hang out and visit. The bedrooms have very little room to move around the beds. Lots of restaurants and coffee shops in the pleasant neighborhood.
This is a cozy and comfy spot in a great neighborhood! My family was visiting Chicago for a wedding and to meet up with friends. We enjoyed the Chicago charm, including nearby bars, restaurants, and parks. It was a breeze to get to the Loop via the Blue Line. We also enjoyed walking to some of our favorite spots in Noble Square and Ukrainian Village. The host was very helpful and communicative. Cheryl was fantastic. I'd stay again next time in Chicago.
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.
The purpose of the visit was to be with my baby sister as she was conquering another surgery to have a tumor removed. It was comforting to know that we had a safe place to relax after a rough day.
The fun news...my brother in law had Chipp Inn on his top 10 bars to visit when he ventures down your way. We had no idea when we made the reservations that the bar was across the street. My sister had the pleasure of sitting down at the bar visiting w the bartender about the history of the neighborhood.
Thank you!!

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.
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.
