Top Rainbow Beach Hotel Reviews

Chicago Lake Shore Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great !! Very clean"

Bright Vintage U of C Center Condo with WiFi, AC in enjoyable Chicago

8/10 Good

"3 bedrooms - excellent if you have a large party. Plenty of space, stocked kitchen (utensils, plates, cookware). Comfortable beds, free wifi. Very clean throughout and had been thoroughly updated, so rooms and furniture did not feel old or crusty at all. It was a great place to call home base during our visit. Nothing special (ie did not have anything "impressive") but nothing bad either. A dirty dish towel, and dirty towel in bathroom were left behind by previous guests. Checkin process was odd - the host mailed me the keys and they arrived the night before the trip, so we were a little anxious."

"Three guests stayed at this residence. Loved each had individual room. Very clean and well stocked. Came specifically for Obama Presidential Center which was conveniently near residence. Also hit Millineum park & magnificent mile. Was lucky to come during Annual Jazz festival. Good selection of food within walking or Uber. Aldi near by for quick items. Parking on street with space in front of residence the entire time we stayed. Would definitely recommend!"
