We were very happy with our stay. The place was clean and fully stocked. The beds were comfy and there were plenty of pillows and blankets. The sleep mat was also very comfortable. My family also utilized the study area and gym on the first floor. The train was only about a 5-minute walk away which was very convenient. And we had a car for part of our stay and was able to find street parking and also used Spot Hero.

We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very clean and had a well-stocked kitchen. The building contains plenty of amenities, including a park-like courtyard that made our dog walks a breeze. (There is a pet deposit on top of the general deposit, but both were refunded without a problem.) We appreciated the location, which is a section of Lincoln Park we weren't familiar with but has a great selection of stores and restaurants within a short walk from the front door. Free street parking is available around the apartment, but the spots were hard to come by, so the parking garage adjacent to the building came in handy. All in all, we were very happy with the whole experience.

Communication with property manager prior to check in was good, although this is the only VRBO I’ve ever rented that requires a copy of driver’s license, etc. The property uses a phone based App called Door to access the property. They sent codes for the unit, the bicycle storage room, and the community room but failed to send codes to access the front door and the gym. It took almost 48 hours for them to send the front door code, but there was so much foot traffic we were always able to just follow someone else in. The bigger issue is that there was an electrical outage the morning after we arrived. There was a windstorm, so no fault of their’s. However, the power failure somehow knocked out the boilers that generate hot water. It took them 36 hours to restore hot water. To their credit, the management was very responsive via email. Unfortunately, they just kept telling me they thought it had been fixed. I asked repeatedly to be given access to an empty unit (numerous units listed as available for rental on their website ensure), but they refused. So I drive to Chicago on a Thursday night, worked out on Friday morning, and had no access to a shower until late Saturday night. No apologies. No discount. Nothing. But they all over making sure we vacated the unit on time Sunday morning (we had). I had an equally terrible experience seeking assistance directly from VRBO. Overall, orally the worst experience I’ve had after using VRBO for approximately 50 rentals over 20 yrs.

Great location! Felt very safe. We were able to find free street parking each night. Very clean. Queen futon a little difficult to set up. No wash clothes in one of the bathrooms. It was strange that there was coffee and creamer on counter but no filters to be able to brew coffee. Needed to provide pic of ID and credit card in order to reserve which is not the norm from other VRBOs we have used. Overall a good stay and would recommend.
