Good Stay

Had a great time at Ms. Linnie’s place! She was incredibly responsive and helpful. The house was clean and comfortable, and I loved that there were 2 full bathrooms! I was a little nervous about the neighborhood as we were definitely looked at as outsiders, but no one bothered us and we walked to Maxwell Street Polish and back just fine (which is fantastic, btw). I did love the gated yard in back with two parking spots, so we had our own space. Would definitely stay again!

Not polished, but comfortable.

Definitely gently used but was comfortable. Ms. Linnie, the host, is very responsive and accommodating. Was missing hair dryers and flat sheets on beds but did not negatively affect our visit.

Great place for the weekend.

Was in Chicago for the weekend, we were gone most of the day but this was a nice place to be able to come back to at night. The gated parking spot behind the house was very convenient and easy to access.

Beautiful Home and Nearby the City

This property was a great place, well maintained, and very close to downtown Chicago. The host was very responsive and the property was clean and comfortable. The only detraction is the location. On a normal day, things were quiet but the area was dirty (trash lining the streets). On the 4th of July, there was a lot of rampant fireworks, some getting too close to vehicles for comfort (even landing in the yard or debris touching the house). Overall, an amazing property though!

Underwhelming and over priced

This was not what we expected as far as neighborhood. Very sketchy, loud music and fighting in the street that continued past 4 AM. We did not feel safe. House was ok but not clean. Walls were very dirty. Showers were terrible and had mold. Towels were like rags. Beds were barely made. The amount of money that we paid for two nights was NOT ok.

Questionable Surroundings

Drove up and there were homeless people right outside the fence. There was a big group of people outside just hanging out right next door. Did not feel safe, so didn’t even stay and rented a hotel for the two nights instead.

Not as pleasent as expected

Positives - Property manager is very easy to communicate. During our stay we had an issue with the bathroom door lock and it was addressed promptly. Negatives - 1) Misrepresentation of bed sizes. Second and third beds are NOT QUEEN as shown in the listing. Both are Full size. 2) Location is NOT SAFE for family stay.

Amazing communication

Ms Linnie is a 10/10 property manager. She was available at any time for questions and promptly dropped by to show us where extra towels were when we asked. The downstairs area is a perfect layout for gatherings where we had movie nights, played card games, shared stories over beers, and ordered very late night pizzas. The location definitely made me uneasy once my local chicago friends told me about it. As a female, I was definitely on edge during my stay. However, we didn’t have a single issue with any of the neighbors and felt like the house was secured well at night. We love Ms Linnie!

Great price, question the area!

The price of the location was good. Again, I feel I shouldn’t complain because the price was great but, I was unaware how dangerous the area was. Every Lyft driver that took us there said comments like, “you need to upgrade and leave this area”, “this area is not safe for you”. We even had 2 drivers cancel our pick up because they didn’t want to go into this area. We didn’t have anything happen to us and we stayed, but definitely my family was very scared at night. I would have my son open the door before the driver would leave us. The condo itself was not bad and the communication with the owner was very good and fast. She was receptive to all my questions. If I were to make suggestions, I feel like the owner should buy cloth couch covers that are washable. The couches look very stained and we didn’t want to just sit on them. I took a sheet off the bed and put it over one of the chairs to sit in. Also, the pans were rusty. My wife found several small black curly hairs in our sheets, which made me question whether they were washed. I couldn’t afford to leave after we paid for the stay, so we just stayed put. We would leave in the morning and wouldn’t come back until we were ready to lock up and stay in. I would not go back there with children.
