I chose this property for the option of staying in a converted shipping container. It didn't disappoint! With a well designed interior, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen and comfortable sitting area, Danielle and Ryan provide a great space. It is close to the hospital if you need to be near family, and easy access to a neighborhood filled with restaurants, bars and coffee houses. I would encourage booking this interesting place that gave me easy access to so much on my route back to Chicago!

Our stay was mostly excellent, the property was unique, well-appointed, and comfortable. Pictures of the property are accurate, the decor is wonderful! The kitchen coffee and creamer station was stocked which was a nice touch. The location was great for our needs, just a short drive to areas around Crown Center where the event for our weekend was held. The only improvement would be: there was an ant infestation in the front 2 BRs. The 'traps' that were placed were either old and or not strong enough to correct the problem. Also, the baseboards throughout lacked cleaning (dust & hair) and the outdoor furniture seating had to be cleaned before using. Overall, we would definitely stay here again!
