(Pssst... Quick favor if you're thinking about booking: Please read the entire listing as it likely answers any questions you may have. Thanks!)

Our home is located in a bigger (hence, safe) building with 24/7 Security & Front door people near Downtown and South Loop. Once you get your key/fob using our simple check-in guide, you walk into the lobby. With key/fob, you may go up to your floor.

Once you take the elevator up, you take a left out of the elevator and walk all the way down to the corner unit.

Open the door and you are welcome to beautiful views of Chicago. The home opens up to a kitchen on the right and the living room straight ahead. To the left is bedroom and bathroom one. If you walk further one, you'll see bedroom and bathroom two.

There are also great amenities so make sure to keep your fob with you at all times! There is a rooftop deck, business center, and a lounge for your enjoyment. You may also use the laundry facilities for $2 per wash and $2 per dry. Lastly, there is a gym attached to the building, which you may purchase passes during your stay.

There is a NOISE MONITORING system within the home to track decibel noise level. Please respect our neighbors and do not get too loud outside quiet hours :)

FAQs
Q: Is the neighborhood safe?
A: Very much so. 24 hours a day.

Q: PARKING?
A: The home is very easy to get to via public transit. There is public parking connected to the building, operated by LAZ. It is $15-30 / night. SPOTANGELS is your best bet to find FREE parking. Before you park please check all available signs as they may have changed and make sure there are no parking restrictions. Please use SPOTHERO for other parking options.

Q: Do I need to bring towels, a hair dryer, or linens?
A: Nope! we provide all these things. We also provide you with a starter pack of toilet papers.

Q: When can I check in or check out?
A: Check in is 4pm and check out is 10am. Early check ins can be difficult if there are guests who checked out same day. We ask for an early check-in, or a late-check out fee, if you request either.

Q: Luggage Drop-Off / Storage?
A: If you do not have flights that coincide with our check-in and checkout times, you may use RadicalStorage to store your bags for your optimal time :)

Q: Can I come and go as I please?
A: Yes. And we wouldn't trust any listing with which this isn't the case.

Q: Is the place professionally cleaned between guests?
A: Yes, and we take pride in providing a clean home for guests.

Q: What's my total booking price?
A: We honestly have no idea. With fees included, it only shows the guest how much they pay. This figure should be present after you enter your dates. Note that, pricing varies on a daily basis, and it actually uses some crazy algorithm to adjust it automatically, so I don't actually control this.

Q: Are the beds comfortable?
A: Very. Some guests say they're the best they've ever slept on!

You have full access to the home, and building amenities with your key fob. Please always keep it on hand!

We are here to help, but give you space to enjoy :)

The South Loop is such a dynamic mix of attractions and histories that the neighborhood tends to be seen as many different things to many different people. Consider the assorted areas that comprise the South Loop:

Much of its eastern edge is encompassed by the Museum Campus, an impressive collection of cultural treasures that includes the Field Museum, Adler Planetarium and Shedd Aquarium. This campus sits on scenic lakefront parklands that are an extension of Grant Park. With 319 acres of green space and recreational fields, Grant Park is known as "Chicago's front yard" to locals and also plays host to major city events such as Taste of Chicago, Chicago Blues Festival and Lollapalooza.

Jutting out further into Lake Michigan is Northerly Island, a peninsula sought out by nature lovers, while along the southern edge the sports fans know Soldier Field as the stadium for the beloved Chicago Bears football team. Meeting attendees are most familiar with McCormick Place, the largest convention center in the country, which is also in the immediate area.

And yet there are even more facets to the South Loop. History buffs point out the Motor Row District along South Michigan Avenue and nearby Prairie Avenue District, the "Millionaire's Row" that was lined with mansions belonging to Chicago's most wealthy elite during the end of the 19th century.

In the adjacent Printer's Row neighborhood, urban loft condos now fill the commercial spaces in what was formerly the center of the Midwest's publishing industry. Connections to this past are still seen within the venerable, independent book store and annual summer lit fest here. But business professionals and students have brought new life and redevelopment (though the vibe remains mellow), filling the restaurants, music clubs, smaller theaters and museums that have all established themselves in the community.

You are only a 1 block away from the minute walk from Green, Red, and Orange "L" subway stop, which gets you virtually everywhere in the City. You are also a short walk to a number of restaurants and attractions

Absolutely fine

Good location for folks visiting museums, far from northern neighborhoods, but proximity to L couldn’t have been better. Unit itself is a little aged and could use some minor repairs, but functions well for a family of 4. Don’t expect to be able to cook anything, as the kitchen is probably the least equipped vrbo we’ve encountered. Comfy beds though.

Chicago Trip - Daughter's Birthday

Overall, our stay was great and the location was perfect. We wanted to do something special with our daughter who was turning 2, so we took her to the Children's Museum and Shedd Aquarium. Everything we needed was either a few minute drive or walking distance from the apartment. The only negatives were the rooftop patio - the grills weren't working properly so we couldn't grill out like we wanted. Parking was an issue, but I had a feeling it would be. We were charged $70 per day in the lot attached to the building. I can't complain too much there though, we could have tried to find something cheaper but with a 2 year old, it seemed worth it to just park there and be done with it. Overall, it was a great trip and I'd recomend the place to anyone looking to enjoy Navy Pier and the lakeshore.

Great Location for Family Vacation

The location of this property cannot be beat. At the corner of Roosevelt and Michigan, there is access to Red, Orange, and Green line trains, plus access to multiple bus routes to all of the museums and must-see attractions. You also have great views of Willis Tower and Lake Michigan. The check-in procedure is as easy as obtaining the keys from the lock box on the first floor. There is no waiting or dealing with a registration desk. The apartment itself is clean and spacious. The owners provide plenty of cleaning supplies such as hand and dish soap, dishwasher tablets, garbage bags. The beds are very comfortable. The only issue we had was with the water temperature in the master bath, where the shower would change from hot to freezing cold with no warning. Spacing out showers seemed to help. This is probably due to the building's age rather than anything specific to the apartment. The only other thing to be aware of is that the second bedroom does not have an air conditioning unit. The owners do provide fans, so it was not a major issue for my kids to stay there. However, for adults it may be something to consider. There are blackout shades in this room (but none in the master bedroom which is strange).

An honest review from a fellow vrbo host

It is a 3 overall and not for the place but the owners. 5 stars: great part of town, very convenient building, easy access, walk everywhere, park, lake, dining options, etc. super-comfy king beds, perfect 2/2 space for me and my adult son. 1 star: owner communication. Wi-Fi didn’t work from the very beginning. Even though we were there for holiday, I needed to do meetings, and my son needed to finish college assignments. Contacted owners immediately. Got a few insulting responses, such as is your equipment plugged in. Afterwards got an alternative Wi-Fi connect, from six floors away in a high rise building, it worked for minutes and then would fall off. After that, silence with owners. I tried to call, the number listed is NOT IN SERVICE. I also asked them to call me, which they never did. The next morning, after hotspotting my meetings off my phone, I called Vrbo. They also could not get in touch with the owners, they were supposed to call me back, and never did either. Then both owners and the Vrbo kept sending me feel good messages as to how wonderful they hoped my stay was and if I had any issues at all… We did have a really good time, the apartment is great, however, I am a VRBO and other rental owner myself. You don’t ignore your guests. Period.

Nice location for girls weekend

Perfect location for easy access to museums. The home was clean and well maintained. Kitchen was sparsely stocked, would have been nice to have a few baking pans and a dishrag and dish towels. But host was responsive when we reached out about missing washcloths. We were disappointed that the unit faced west, since the listing makes it look like this is a lake-facing unit. Thanks for hosting our girls week in the city!
