Nice place in great neighborhood!
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely little place in the Pilsen area, which has a lot of Mexican people, restaurants and shops. Everyone we met was so nice and friendly and we went to a terrific small "diner" down the block for breakfast every day. It was truly like home away from home. The location also is just a a few blocks from the train, which was very convenient.

The Neighborhood!!!
As a middle aged woman, I brought my nieces to Chicago to explore for the first time. I chose this location due to its proximity to the train, but now realize it is the BEST NEIGHBORHOOD!!!! It is a generational neighborhood, all the properties and businesses are owned by those who have lived here for generations. Authentic. And I felt so safe. Terrific restaurants nearby as well as the bucket-list venue, Thalia Hall. The bus stop is super close, and the train just 2 blocks. The unit was small but perfect for us. It was stocked nicely with coffee and a fridge that has filtered water, and this is great for weary travelers arriving late. Entry is seamless. I want to address some of the negative things I have read I the reviews: 1) The A/C will freeze you out. 2) There was no problem with noise from above, save a few footsteps here and there. 3) the toilet paper is only 1 ply which seems cheap but also, we chose this unit for affordability so... 4) the mattresses. Well, they are great for one person. Two people in the bed and there is a deep well in the middle. Someone is either on a high side or a low side. I think the owners may need to sleep in the beds now after some time has passed since they had good reviews on the mattresses. It would have been a perfect 5 star stay but the patio advertised did not have patio furniture to sit on. There was furniture out there but it was all covered up. Overall: this stay was fantastic. Very hospitable. Would absolutely stay again.

Brought my 2 sons (12&15) on a guys trip for 3 nights. The property was immaculately kept and provided easy access to locations we wanted to see. The owners were also very responsive to questions we had before and during our stay. I highly recommend the local Mexican restaurants like 5 Rabanitos Restaurante. Definitely would stay here again!

Great location, small
We had a really wonderful long weekend in Chicago, and this VRBO served as our home base. The location is fantastic. Very close to two train stations and in a vibrant and safe neighborhood. And less than half an hour to downtown, walking and waiting for the train included. We loved all the food options nearby and seeing the murals around. The Mexican Art Museum is also a must see and it's free! We really enjoyed the location. In terms of the home itself, for three longtime best friends the close quarters isn't much of a problem. I do think it would be a squeeze to have any more than three people in the space though. Mostly just since there isn't a ton of seating. Other than that, it was cozy and served our purposes of sleeping and hanging out between activities. The only other thing was we woke up a few times in the morning due to footsteps upstairs. Wasn't really a huge deal since we had to get up anyway. Overall, we had a great stay and the hosts were easy to communicate with. Would recommend!

Cute home, great location, everything we needed!
The space was perfect for our trip. It was clean, exactly what we saw from the photos, comfortably fit my 3 friends and I, and the aesthetic of the place was cute (my sister loved the Frida art). Gabriel and Tina were great, we didn't see them but knew they were just a text/phone call away. They also left easy to follow instructions for checking in/out and gave recommendations for the local area. The local area is conveniently near the pink train line and across the street from a community park. Some good local eats and even a thrift/vintage shop nearby. We also got to check out the National Museum of Mexican Art which is just walking distance from their place and it's free! I would stay here again. Thanks again for being great hosts! Hasta la proxima!
