10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location Great space Wonderful atmosphere"

Gilded Age Gold Coast Mansion with Parking, Deck, Fireplaces

10/10 Excellent

"Our group of 21 had a great time staying at this property. There was plenty of space for everyone, it was clean and the beds were comfortable. The host was easy to reach and communicate with. Location is perfect as well for doing all the Chicago things. If we ever came back with such a large group I would not hesitate to stay here again!"

Historic and Unique Brownstone in Gold Coast - 3

10/10 Excellent

"We found parking through SpotHero very close. The VRBO was as advertized for the most part, maybe missing one chair in the living room. Although we didn't use the kitchen, it looked to be lacking any real cooking items. It was clean, well kept, perfect location and felt very safe. Communication with the owner was exceptional. Thank you!"

Brownstone in Gold Coast - Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, near public transportation and within walking distance to restaurants and sights along Michigan Ave. We enjoyed our one week stay. Unit has been updated but the building is older, so be aware that the floors transmit heavy step sounds to the unit below. Same can occur with the unit above. Experience city sounds and birds in the morning. May be a good idea to pack earplugs. Dan is an excellent host!"
