Amazing Apartment
This was our first time visiting Chicago, I chose this property because the photos look so nice, and I was not disappointed, the reality was an apartment that was very spacious, much bigger than in the photos, immaculately clean and a really good layout, Ross and Glenn the managers greeted us on our arrival and gave us a very warm welcome, they told us all we needed to know and made it clear that they would be happy to help in anyway they could, we never needed to contact them once and this was because we had everything we needed and we had clearly been given lots of info in both the folder that is in the apartment and also because they patiently answered any questions and gave us info on our arrival, this apartment was a real joy to come back to after our full days out in Chicago, we loved the underfloor heating in the bathrooms, the jacuzzi bath and spacious shower, the flat screen tv with built in dvd player in the living room, the large beds that were very comfy, an abundance of thick fluffy towels, the cooker and dishwasher worked amazingly well, the drinks feature on the American fridge was great for crushed ice and lovely cooling water to fill your bottles up for the day, there's a lovely garden out back for your use ,lovely to sit out with breakfast as there's a table and chairs for you, Chicago is the best City ever, so unique with an abundance of character, the architecture is amazing, there is so much to do, Willis tower with the glass rooms you step out into, the Navy pier, shopping outlets, six flags, museums, the beaches, magnificent mile with the water tower shopping mall, it was all so amazing, we didn't get to do everything and we stayed 11 nights, we are seriously thinking of going back next year and would have no hesitation in staying in this apartment again, it was nice feeling part of the community, the only gripe is some evenings was a bit of a struggle finding a parking space and we did get a ticket for having the car parked facing the wrong way, anyone from Europe would be oblivious to this law of having the car facing the way you are going to pull out, I suppose it makes sense when you think about it, but be aware so you don't get a ticket, that's the only gripe, everything else was perfect, thank you so much Glen, Ross and William the owner we had an unforgettable time, and hope to see you again in the very near future Jackie Mark and Damien

Spacious and spotless condo to spread out and relax!
This is a fantastic location just outside of the city on a quiet street but close to everything. The Property Manager (Ross) is fantastic with communication and even after our flight was delayed three times, he met us at the door, gave us a thorough tour of where everything is located, and some great tips on where to eat. It's a $20 UBER to the heart of the city (Millenium Park) and the place is spotless! Highly recommend if you're looking for a place to hang your hat for a few days!

Great property
We stayed for a weekend to visit my daughter who lives nearby. This condo was just as the pictures represented. Ross was easy to communicate with and very helpful showing us around the unit. The beds were comfy and there were lots of nice amenities to make our stay easy and convenient.

Why they chose this property

The location is perfect. I wanted to be close to the lake, airport and Evanston. I am a fanatic for wonderful architechture and Rogers Park is known for the late 20's grand style. Only 10 miles from O'Hare Field. Midway Airport is 22 miles away. Just a 15 minute ride on the Union Pacific train to the heart of the city. This train stop is only 6 blocks from Residence on the Avenue. Ravinia Park, the out door concert venue can be reached in 20 minutes by this same train.The Red line will take you to Wrigley Field, Lincoln Park Zoo & to down town. Wrigley Field home to the World Series Championship Cubs is just 15 minutes from our location!

What makes this property unique

I love the location. All that the city has to offer is so reachable. Lake Shore Drive is so close and can take me to the Magnificient mile (Michigan Avenue)Or head the other direction where LSD becomes Sheridan Road & view the beautiful mansions along the way to the Chicago Botanical Garden..........All along the the lake front. I enjoy as well the peacefulness ofthe beautiful North Shore towns of Evanston, Willmette, Winnetka & Glencoe Having the lake front so close is also a benefit.
