Better than the pics!

What a great place for large groups. State of the art! Has everything you need, plus things you didn’t know you needed. We had a group of 12 for a family wedding and this was the perfect spot. Convenient to all activities. Grocery, CVS, church, restaurants, bars all walking distance. Wish we had more time to stay and take advantage of all this place has to offer. Highly recommend! Property manager, Ben, was fantastic too.

Quick Trip to Chicago

Place was great; comfortable and spacious. Funky layout and was perfect for our group. A few blocks from the blue line, thus easy to access. ‘Penthouse’ is loosely used as it is only a 4 story building but great nonetheless

Thanksgiving Reunion

We are a three generation family of 12, coming from California, Florida, New Hampshire, and Connecticut, and we were very comfortable in this handsome, spacious, well-equipped penthouse. Both the owner and the property manager were kind and attentive during our weeklong stay.

Amazing stay

Sameer’s place is amazing and was the ideal place for my bachelor party. The pictures truly do not do it justice. His property manager, Ben, met us on arrival and was always just a text away if we had any questions. The space is massive and we were blown away by how nice the penthouse was! The roof was also fantastic and has great views of the city. Overall, his place was a big reason why we had such a great time and I hope to stay there again soon! Look no further for a space to host your large group - you won’t regret it! Cannot recommend it enough.

Great trip to Chicago facilitated with excellent VRBO for a small group. Location is great. Plenty of room for everyone to move around and have their own room/space. Really enjoyed view of Chicago skyline from rooftop deck.

Amazing Property for Large Group

I recently stayed at this property with a bunch of friends for a weekend trip. This property was better than expected. It has plenty of space and amenities to support a large group. Additionally, the sleeping spaces were comfortable and clean. The property managers were helpful and friendly the entire way. This is an A+ property.

Long family weekend

Had “711 Penthouse” for 9 during our family Christmas weekend in Chicago. Very conveniently located between most major attractions. Nice neighborhood options very close for food/groceries. Pay the extra for garage parking….huge time saver. Clean place w everything we needed. Given the location, very quiet. Great weekend and would easily go back with the family. Plenty of space!

Deck

These property owners are over advertising how many people this unit can sleep. Further, they are advertising the unit with a roof deck and then after you book advise it costs more to use and access the deck.

Exceptional Location

We very much enjoyed staying at The River West. The property is large, spacious and had plenty of room for the 12 of us to stay comfortably. The location was a 15-20 minute Uber ride from anywhere we wanted to go. The bus stop is close, too. A great market is within walking distance and the Magnificent Mile is within walking distance as well. The neighborhood was safe and everyone we encountered was friendly.

Incredible Property

The pictures do not do this place justice, this place is huge. The place was spotless when we arrived is absolutely stunning. We had all things needed to accommodate ourselves during our stay. No shortage of towels, trash bags, etc. The view from the rooftop was absolutely incredible and the location could not have been better. Hosts were very easy to work with and trustworthy. 10/10 would recommend!

711 fun

This property is great for a big group! Lots of space to spread out in different areas. Under a little renovation and needed a few things, but manager was very quick to respond to anything we needed, and gave us some good recommendations for food places. Nice grocery store with mini food court and bar a block away and a CVS a block away as well. Pricing wasn't quite accurate about certain charges, but all in all the place was great for our big family to hang out, play games, work and enjoy Chicago! Would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Fantastic home in a fantastic area

We stayed at the penthouse for a week while in Chicago for a conference. The condo was perfect. We were able to have an intimate networking event though do encourage everyone, if you do the same, to have everyone downstairs in the front room so to not disturb the neighbors below. The location was easy for Ubers to find, had a local restaurant and coffee shop within walking distance, along with a pharmacy and food store. Everything was clean, for mfortable, and the natural light that comes through the many skylights was a dream. I would definitely return to this rental again and encourage others to do the same!!

Great place for a group trip

I recently booked this penthouse for a girls trip with 8 of us. The place was clean and had tons of space. The location was great and there was a breakfast spot around the corner and a cvs a block away for last minute needs. It was easy to get Ubers and get where we needed to go. The owner/manager were great and communicated well, although we didn't have any issues while there. The place is also well stocked with games, glass/dishware, towels, linens, etc. The roof top isn't that exciting and is really small, but the place itself has so much space you don't really even need to use the rooftop. Overall 5/5 and I would stay here again if I did another trip to Chicago.

Description and owner's claims are not accurate

Description of the property says it sleeps 20. We were a group of 16 - this is not true. Description claims 2 double futons. There are no futons in the house. There are couches only, which are not easy to sleep on. I called the owner to inquire about the sleeping areas- he claimed there were not only the futons listed, but also a "few daybeds" throughout the house. There are no daybeds. When we arrived the property manager told us there had never been daybeds, only air mattresses. Afterwards I let the owner know that the description and claims made over the phone were not accurate, but there has been no remedy for the false claims. I hope vrbo asks the owner to at least update the description to be accurate.

Great communication, great location, some amenities unavailable

Our family had an excellent time in Chicago. We loved the location of the rental, the ease of check-in, and Ben, the property manager was very easy to reach. It was just disappointing that certain things we thought we were getting (foosball table, ice machine, jetted jacuzzi) were broken or not working properly. Ben tried to make it up to us though with some wine and ice cream. We weren't unsatisfied. On the contrary, all of our family raved about the rental and how convenient it was for us all to be together. Thank you again!

Good for big groups

Our group loved staying at this apartment. The photos in the listing don’t really do the location justice and Sameer and Ben were super responses to all of our needs. The location is close to a nearby train stop and many grocery stores so it was ideal for getting around and stocking our fridge for the week. I think our group of 16 was worried about the shower situation but it turned out to be fine with the two full bathrooms (a shower and tub in each) as well as the half bath.
