Great cozy place near all things Chicago!
Cute place with room to hang out together! There was enough room for each of us to have a place to sleep as well. This is up a couple narrow flights of stairs, and there is no stove, but the ability to toast and microwave was just perfect (so I didn't have to cook). So we could have some easy snacks and light meals in. There is a stackable washer/dryer (i brought a few pods, but there is some detergent on site). Owner was VERY attentive and helpful ... we'll be coming back here next time we visit Chicago!

Great Apartment for Exploring Chicago
We came to Chicago to watch some baseball and explore the city. This apartment was perfect. It's a 2 minute walk to catch the Metra train downtown, and a 10 - 15 minute walk to catch the 'L' to Wrigley Field. The apartment is spacious and comfortable. Holly was great and provided maps and schedules (and a cold beer the first night!). We would definitely stay here again.

Hoomey, comfy and the perfect place for home-base for our Chicago trip.
First, Holly and Mark were wonderful! There when you need them for advice on how to get around and what to do but not intrusive at all. The apartment was 1 block from Metra train that takes into the city quickly on weekday mornings. The L is a few block farther but the red line takes you right into downtown. Also, a short walk to the beach. Lots of restaurants around. The place was very compfortable and with a nice balcony for coffee in the am ot cocktails in the pm.

Great location, cute apartment
Our group of 4 (2 adults and 2 teens) enjoyed our 2 night stay in Holly and Mark's cute apartment. The sleeping arrangements were comfortable and the small kitchen allowed us to save on restaurant meals. Holly communicated with us early and often, letting us know everything we needed in order to find and enter the apartment. She allowed us to drop off our stuff early (prior to check-in) so that it didn't have to sit in the hot car all day. Loyola Park and its beaches are just a few blocks away (easy walk) and the Metra station is very close for trips downtown. Rogers Park is a lovely area and we felt quite safe, even walking home from the Metra station late at night. Thank you Holly and Mark!

Awesome host and minutes to downtown
The apartment was clean and comfortable, and Holly is awesome. She was very responsive, helpful and took care of our every need. When we noticed a minor inconvenience (a plug by the bed to charge a phone) it was taken care of in the blink of an eye. Super convenient location. We used this as our base to explore the city - 3 minute walk to the Metra train, which takes us into downtown Chicago in 20 minutes. The immediate Rogers Park neighborhood has a lot of charm too, with a lot of eateries within walking distance. Parking on the street was easy to find. The only issue was that a passing car hit our mirror and damaged it. Advice would be to fold it in and park close to the curb as possible. Holly was again helpful by lending us some tape to hold it together for our trip home. We would happily stay here again on our next trip to Chicago and look forward to seeing Holly again!

Great, cozy place. Nice neighborhood within walking distance to many good ethnic restaurants. Everyone was super nice. Holly was extremely attentive to every communication. Just wish VRBO didn't tack on so many fees and taxes, but not the fault of owners. Felt very safe the whole time.

Perfect place to land with a large group!
We were a little nervous about the size of the unit given our group is a bit on the large side, but it was exactly right for what we needed for the weekend - mainly just a comfy place to sleep after a long weekend of exploring the city. It was nice being out of the hustle & bustle of downtown and having easy (free) street parking as well!

Charming 3rd floor apartment, smells like a library or bookstore 📚🥰. Holly thought of everything while furnishing and supplying the apartment with everything needed for our stay. The house is very quiet, rarely heard footsteps or doors. Holly and Mark are available and very helpful, with excellent recommendations for food. Tons of wonderful restaurants in walking distance. Safe neighborhood. We will remember for future trips! Thank you!

Perfect spot for apartment hunting
We were in Chicago to find my son an apartment on the North side, and this was the perfect home base for exploring Rogers Park and other neighborhoods - close to Metra and the L, very walkable, and near restaurants and shopping. Holly and Mark were the perfect welcoming hosts and made us feel right at home!

Nice Stay in a Cozy Package
Property is exquisitely clean and much appears recently installed. Furniture and beds comfortable. Plenty of linens and quality blankets. Plenty of hot water for shower. Owner has spent time and thought in decorations and furniture selection for comfort and work space. Owner is very good communicator and attentive to guest. An outstanding Host. Although the space is small it worked well for the two of us. We used the kitchen solely for breakfast, but it can also has large Microwave and small toaster oven and small refrigerator. Access to this unit is up two flights of stairs, the second of which is narrow and winding, but with sturdy hand rails. I would not recommend for someone who can not pay attention or who does not have the balance or strength to go up this type stair. We would stay here again if available.

We have lived in Chicago for over 20 years and wouldn't live any where else. We are near the lake, parks and golf course and love all the restaurants, shops, and activities in the area. We can hop the train a half a block away to go downtown in 18 minutes! WE are glad to be So close to Loyola and Northwestern campuses.
