The East Village Historic District is a historic district in the East Village neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. The district is primarily residential and includes the oldest portions of the neighborhood. German immigrants and German Americans settled and developed the district from 1870 to 1920. Settlers were drawn to the area due to its proximity to jobs, both in local businesses and in larger industries such as brewing. Many of the architects and builders of the district's homes were German as well; they generally built houses in vernacular styles using masonry. After 1920, the neighborhood became primarily Polish; its demographics shifted again in the 1960s due to Hispanic settlement.[2]

Winter Break Made Breezy

The apartment was cozy, clean and comfortable. The owner was easy to reach out to and the location was fantastic. Few mins to bus stops and Blue Line. It was a breeze to check in and out and access it throughout the length of stay. I would return to the same apartment again.

Great for small families

Property was clean and spacious which was perfect for our family of 4. The neighbor was cute and we felt safe being there. Free street parking, though spaces were some times limited. Overall, we were happy with our stay.

Nice apartment

Overall we were happy with our stay. Very clean apartment. We had no problem finding parking close by. Please note the second queen "bed" is a pull out couch that is not comfortable. Would work for young kids because they seem to be able to sleep on anything.

Exactly as described/pictures

This was the perfect stay for a week and had everything we needed plus all the luxe amenities you like in home away from home (extra towels, plenty of soap and other amenities, nice TV). Ten minutes from L, two minutes from bike hire, walk to plenty of great food and bars, quiet street and building. Would highly recommend to friends and would definitely come back!

Nice cottage. Good location

Property is in a good location to be able to get downtown, whether driving or using public transportation. Bus stop is a 2 minute walk. There is parking on the street but it is tight. Cottage was clean and the area seemed safe, as we didn't have any issues during our stay.

Great Chicago Getaway Stay!

PROS: Spacious, comfortable, clean, modern yet charming, well-appointed 2 bed/2 bath with lovely common areas. The listing is accurate - this place is a GEM! I would stay here again. Best of my Chicago VRBO experiences to date. Kept us warm & safe on a very cold & snowy long weekend! Neighborhood is lovely, safe & quiet. Would love to experience the windows/porch/etc. in warmer weather. William the host was communicative, positive, and friendly.CONS: Be aware - the property mgmt software/system was a major frustration. Check-in was confusing, the lockbox was a mechanical challenge, and check-out instructions were received after we left the unit. I can only imagine the issues that must come with managing city property rentals... still, there were a lot of warnings and policies and messages and fee lists that did not apply to this property (?) or to who my friend and I are as travelers. The worst part was that we did not have the codes/clarity we actually needed to cover the basics of being a polite, informed pair of out-of-town guests. These are issues that should be easy to address for future guests at this specific property. I sincerely hope these hosting processes will be improved because this is a fantastic VRBO option in Chicago!

Nice one!!

A nice and clean condo that’s well furnished. Would definitely recommend it for a small group or family. It’s tucked in a quiet residential neighborhood a short distance away from the hustle and bustle. Wicker Park with shops and restaurants is just 0.5 miles away. Downtown is easily accessible by taking the blue line from Division Station. Convenient!! Will want to stay here again.
