  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    The view was great. Great location. Felt like apartment living, but still an amazing place to stay!

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Everything was wonderful. The kitchen was above well appointed. The bed was comfortable. EVERYTHING was exactly right for a home base while in Chicago. Thank you.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    We loved are stay. It was very clean, so spacious, centrally located with restaurants and shopping nearby. A grocery store right next door and a minute away from Eataly and Nordstrom. How fabulous. The view is spectacular and the communication with the owners was excellent. I cannot recommend more. The doorman was also a lovely man. Great trip.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Great location, just blocks from Michigan Ave, and right at a Red Line stop. Groceries, and tons of restaurants nearby. Fabulous hosts who provided us with all the information we needed.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    The amazing views and how clean it was! Loved everything

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    The condo was spacious, very clean, fully equipped, in an excellent location, warm and comfortable during the cold weather, and the host was extremely responsive and helpful. The building layout made it a little hard to find the unit on the first night, and the weather in Chicago was extremely cold during our stay.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Very nice place, spacious and well-kept. Hosts were very responsive and clear with instructions for use of the apartment. Excellent location too. Right in the center of everything that the Magnificent Mile in Chicago has to offer.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Location is incredible. The views are spectacular. My favorite part is how somehow, you manage to feel at “home”. Truly. Then you look out the window and it’s a little surreal. No uncomfortable stuffy hotel feeling. I felt at ease in minutes, lacked nothing for convenience. I’ve seen the city many different ways, and this is by very far my favorite. This box is merely more room for compliments. Forgot something? Take the elevator down and go next door to Jewel. Don’t overpack there’s a washer and dryer. You can’t hear your neighbors.

    The owners were great communicators and were very gracious hosts. The condo was immaculate and had a view that was incredible. The space was perfect for my wife, toddler and I. N/a

    The location is perfect, and the hosts were fantastic-friendly, responsive, and helpful. The apartment itself is clean, beautifully furnished, spacious and comfortable. We especially loved the exceptional city and sunset views from the balcony, along with the well-equipped and thoughtfully designed facilities. We would absolutely stay here again. None

    Amazing view. Super relaxing and close to everything.

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    Very nicely appointed, clean and comfortable apartment in a very convenient location. Especially liked the penthouse view of the city, the fireplace and grocery store next door. The make up mirror in bathroom is like a Funhouse mirror. ?
