* 2 King-Size beds with super comfy mattress
* 2 full bathrooms with towels & body wash, shampoo, conditioner.
* Full dining room with chairs & utensils/pots/pans/dinnerware/glasses
* Custom kitchen stocked w/ all SS appliances
* Beautiful, Gilded Designer Apartment

Other things to note about the space:

CLOSE TO LAKE, SHOPPING, AND RESTAURANTS.

Please note that we have a single duct HVAC system. The building is required by law to turn on/off heat and air at specific times. With this, we understand that it can be uncomfortable in the transition dates and we work to accommodate our guests with fans or indoor heaters.

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

Q: PARKING?
A: You do not need a car, but there are multiple garages within a block of the home if you drive. They are typically $20-40 / night.

We recommend apps like SpotAngel or SpotHero to find free or cheap parking. There are SpotHero spots near the building for your convenience, available on a first come, first serve basis.

Q: Do I need to bring towels, a hair dryer, or linens?
A: Nope! we provide all these things. Same with hotel-size toiletries (unless I happen to be out, which is rare).

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: 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! it
Guest access
You have full access to the condo. The gym and laundry but please respect the long-term tenants in the building.

You will be sent all relevant check-in steps along with the house manual through g docs 2 days before your check in. Thanks :)

Easter Weekend 2025

We really enjoyed this property - the location was excellent, close to Michigan Ave. shops, restaurants, sights but the street itself was quiet and not crowded at all which made for easy ubers! We walked everywhere and loved it! The unit itself was very spacious and worked well for our family - plenty of sleeping space with king beds in both bedrooms, bonus trundle daybed in the living room and two full bathrooms definitely a plus :) The hosts were great communicating with us before and during our trip - we loved Chicago and would definitely come back to this property!

Good place to stay

This is a nice place to stay. Conveniently located within the walking distance from multiple restaurants, shops and attractions. Upon welcome, the host provided a pitcher with cold water in the fridge, a generous amount of coffee pods to choose from, coffee mate creamers, tea bags. They also offered a generous amount of hand soap, shampoo, body wash and conditioner. In the kitchen they had plenty of dish soap pods and trash bags, which is rare in most VRBOs I’ve been to. Only one frying pan though and no tapperwear - considering there is a kitchen for cooking, it was slightly inconvenient. The place is generally quiet but you can hear squeaky floors from the neighbors upstairs, sirens and dogs barking outside. There is a nice little cafe Cafecito on the ground floor where you can have breakfast outside. The Ohio street beach is 10 mins walking distance. I found the beds comfortable, the mattresses were firm, no dents (as mentioned by one of the reviewers). The beds could benefit from more natural bed linens but it’s my personal preference. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there. I recommend this place.

Great location to see the best of Chicago!

We were very happy with our stay at The Guild. The communication in advance and the check-in process was very easy with instructions sent via email. This is an older apartment building but it has central air which was essential for a late July stay. The living room is spacious, there is a work desk if needed; the kitchen/dining room setup is well appointed with a Keurig and a full supply of K-cups (thank you!); and the bedrooms are good sized with very comfortable beds. The location could not have been better, within a few minutes of the Magnificent Mile and the Hancock Tower with the Navy Pier only a 20 minute walk away. We highly recommend the property.

Good location/Weird Vibe/Poor Mattress

All in all I am satisfied with my stay. I will warn others, the fact that you have to enter and exit through the service entrance feels sketchy. The mattress in the bedroom with the ensuite had a huge divot in it and made it difficult to sleep without being in a U shape. The location was good. VRBO will hold your money for some sort of insurance. I wasn’t able to get that back into my account until two weeks after my stay (I also had to pay it a month prior). If you are paying with a credit card, expect to have to pay the interest out of pocket.

Great location

This apartment is in a great location. Plenty of restaurants, shopping and a few minute walk to the John Hancock building. The apartment was clean and well appointed and looks exactly as the photos shown. The only reason I took away a star in the accuracy category is, it lists a queen sleeper sofa, however what they have is a couch that simply folds down- not a queen mattress hidden in a sofa. I spoke to the owners and suggested they change the description to reflect this. The building is a lovely older building with a cafe' on the bottom floor and a beautiful rooftop terrace.
