Wedding Weekend - perfect

RSM Sr Indianapolis, IN
Review Submitted: October 27, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We stayed at this beautifully restored "brownstone" for the weekend of my son's wedding. I had arranged for my daughters, brother (and kids) and other family members to stay with us. We were all so comfortable we felt like we were home. All the adults had bedrooms and the kids "roughed it" on comfortable sofas and a futon.
With 3 full bathrooms even the ladies were happy!

The kitchen has everything you'd need. We made full breakfasts for the group and it was perfect.

The property is within walking distance of Lincoln Square and a wonderful array of shops, restaurants and parks.

It is well maintained and has plenty of linens and other supplies. The fully loaded laundry room came in handy too. The kids had all the HD TV's going - all the time, and the WiFi came in handy on occasion.

In all, this property was everything the owner described
and more! We'll be back and I would recommend it without hesitation.

Great stay on marathon weekend

frojoe23 Frostburg, Maryland
Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
12 of us stayed here on marathon weekend in order to avoid the downtown area and relax. The house was everything and more that we had hoped for. We were able to relax and sleep well every night. There were absolutely no problems with the house. Entry to the house was smooth. There we no issues with hot water as mentioned in previous reviews.

We were able to walk to a number of nearby restaurants and had very easy access to the Rockwell station on the Brown Line. If I ever get to Chicago again, this is where I will stay.

A perfect place to stay

Gene S Omaha, NE
Review Submitted: August 13, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The house was great. It made it one of the best trips to Chicago that I have ever had. We have a large group of guys that go up every year to see a couple of Cubs games and the house was perfect for us. It had enough space that we never felt crowded, top notch amenities and was so convenient. We used the ‘L’ to get to the game and were at Wrigley in about 20 minutes. We’ll definitely be repeat customers

Great house....not so great customer service

Review Submitted: June 25, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We stayed with our extended family (13 people total) for a week in Chicago. We all traveled from out of state. We were told before we arrived that we wouldn't be able to check in until 4pm because the cleaning crew needed extra time. When we arrived at the house we saw that big hole in the front wall and we were actually unsure that we were in the right spot because that certainly didn't match the pictures of the interior we saw on the website.

When we walked in the house at a little after 4pm it was very evident that the cleaning crew had not been there.....a huge pile of dirty linens, beds totally unmade, dirty bathrooms, dirty dishes, dirty floors, etc. I made several calls to both Megan and Dan and could not get ahold of either of them. When we finally spoke with Megan she told us it was Dan's deal to set up the cleaning crew. Finally at 6pm we had to start cleaning up ourselves because we had 5 beds to get made, kids to get fed, etc. At about 6:30 we finally made contact with Dan who was unapologetic for the problem and refused to take responsibility to fix the problem. About that time the cleaning crew showed up and started cleaning up around us which was awkward and bothersome. After we discussed leaving the property to go somewhere else, Dan did apologize and offered to resolve the situation to which we agreed. The last bed was finally made after 9:30

The house itself is very nice. The rooms are spacious and the two levels make it very nice for families with children. Even with 13 people I never felt like we were tripping over each other. Access to the washer/dryer, vaccuum, and cleanup supplies was a definite plus. For 13 people it would have been nice to have more towel sets. The kitchen was really nice and having a grill to use was also a bonus. Like other reviewers mentioned, showers had to be staggered to have enough hot water for everyone. We did also have to dig around to find the information sheet about how to work the tvs, heating/cooling, how to lock up, etc. There was also a very strong fume/odor coming up from the basement rental property.

The location was perfect for us. The brown line stop was so close and there was a grocery store and a walgreens close by. For the children, there was also a small playground within a 2 minute walk.

Staying at this house with this large group was definitely better than staying in a hotel.

Great house, great location

Eric B Seattle, WA
Review Submitted: June 6, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Our group consisted of 3 siblings and their spouses, each family having 2 kids between 5 and 8 years old. Grandma and another family friend came along as well. We all live in different parts of the country, so we were really hoping that this house would let us all spend more time together than past trips where we've stayed in hotels.

The kids absolutely loved having their own "sleeping porch" where they could watch movies and hang out with their cousins upstairs and sleep on air mattresses at night, away from the adults. The set-up of the house made it great for the grown-ups to be able to stay up, play cards and hang out until the wee hours with the kids fast asleep upstairs.

The kitchen was stocked with everything you would expect and then some. We pulled the gas grill out of the garage and cooked up burgers in the courtyard one night. I just wish I had a grill like that one at home!

My single complaint would be that we did have to space our showers out a little bit so everyone could have hot water. But, with 8 adults plus kids I wouldn't expect anything other than that, and by the second morning we had it figured out.

I had to call the owner a couple of times (to ask if we could use the grill, and to ask a question about the TV/remote programming in a bedroom), and he was helpful and available whenever we had a question.

The neighborhood was great, with a nice grocery store a block away (Harvestime Foods, great produce and meat selection!), and a lot of restaurants a few blocks away in Lincoln Square. Our favorite restaurant was "I Monelli Trattoria Pizzeria" (Italian if you couldn't guess), and the desserts at Cafe Selmarie were unbelievable. Some of the ladies found a nearby morning yoga class that they enjoyed. Gross Park was a block away and was perfect for letting the kids blow off some steam too. Really, anything that we needed was easily found within a 4-block radius.

We never had any problem with parking our cars nearby, but then again we did more walking than driving. The brown line stop being a 2-minute walk away was really convenient, and we were able to make it to the heart of downtown in 30 minutes.

In all, the house was clean, beautiful and in a great neighborhood. It was everything we had hoped for, and we will definitely stay there again the next time we all meet up in Chicago.
