Holiday weekend

We stayed at this penthouse over the 4th of July weekend and had a wonderful time amid spectacular views and exceedingly convenient location in the city. We were comfortable and safe, we had a beautiful balcony from which we could view the skyline and the holiday fireworks. We would certainly stay in this location again.

Home Sweet Home Chicago!!

We have stayed at this property numerous times & each time in a different unit. We love it here--the location is perfect for walking everywhere, the Jewel grocery store is right next door & the Red Line "L " is also just outside the door which we use to go to Wrigley Field. Weber Grill is a great restaurant across the street. Will stay here again.
