Wonderful location , walkable to many restaurants and attractions. The view from this unit is amazing. There is a very large deck, although there were no patio furniture . We still enjoyed standing out there and enjoying the view. That is the best part of this unit. It is a large unit but a bit outdated. It is nice there is a separate upstairs area (bedroom and bathroom). There are so many rules and regulations for check in and check out and we received so many emails and texts about this process . Highly recommended for location and view.

Wonderful Property

We booked this location for our annual girls trip. We had a wonderful stay. The property owners had every detailed covered and the communication leading up to, and during our stay was excellent. We loved having a grocery store connected to this property, and the doormen watching over the lobby were very cheerful and helpful. Our location was right in the middle of the city, so we could walk to most everything we wanted. Thank you for a lovely stay. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Great location and things I wish I knew before booking

First of all, the location is perfect for easily getting around the majority of attractions we wanted to see. The unit is very clean. There is even a Jewel-Osco in the building, so grabbing supplies is quick and easy.The building (and apparently all high rises in Chicago) are regulated so either the heat is on or the cooling is on, the unit itself can't be switched. The unit was quite warm so we had to sleep with windows and doors open in order to reach a comfortable temp, but that added to the light and noise during sleeping hours.I marked the communication with the manager a 4. I'll preface this with saying I rent 6ish times a year, so perhaps I'm more experienced than others, that said...There are placards throughout the unit reminding you to take your shoes off (FYI - a stool in the entry way would help facilitate this), no smoking, etc. I also received several extremely detailed emails/texts regarding how the unit is to be used and treated. I realize each of these likely comes from a prior poor rental experience, so to all renters, don't be that group.

important details about the property

there was one misleading thing about the description. My family went there to spend time together vs traditional buying a bunch of gifts. the first night we were there, we were playing charades and having a great time, music, ect. I was contacted by the owner to tell me i had to trun the radio off. It was his radio playing christmas music on the friday night of chritsmas weekend at 930pm. which is well before stated quiet time. We did. We ended up leaving the property and were out sgith seeing and recieved another un prompted text stating we have a zero tolerance policy and you will be asked to leave if it comes up again.... we weren't even there at the time of the second message. It is a great place, wonderful in fact, my opinion is that there is a neighbor near this location that is just generally an un happy person.If you and/or your company are boisterous and plan to let loose in at the property this might not be a good fit. Otherwise it is really an amazing place with a breathtaking view.

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.

Fabulous Mag Mile proeprty!

My family and I stayed here for 4 nights. The unit was perfect for our family. It was comfortable and gave us enough space and also exciting for the kids to be in a penthouse. The building amenities were also A+; this was the first vacation where I have worked out every morning before getting the day started (being from a different time zone helped!). The CTA red line is right outside the door and it's a short walk to the river. 10/10!

Everything was great and the apartment was spotlessly clean! However, If you are a late sleeper bring eye masks. The east facing apartment is bright in the mornings!
