Vacation rentals with a home theater in Illinois

Stayed the weekend for C2E2 and was super easy to come and go, safe neighborhood, walkable groceries stores and gas stations, away from the busy city and extremely comfortable, felt right at home, we loved this place so much, great host

Woods place is perfect! I stayed for a weekend and felt right at home. The decor and plush bedrooms were soooo comfy and luxurious. He also has a massive TV with a big couch for watching movies at night. It’s in a great location near bars, record shops, and vintage stores. But his actual street is really quiet which is nice. The separate side entrance was appreciated and easy to find. He also includes laundry, which we didn’t use, but it’s a nice amenity to have access to. We didn’t need a kitchen but having a coffee bar was great in the morning. Plus, his backyard is an oasis! It’s so peaceful and relaxing. I would definitely stay here again.

During my long-term stay, each day neighbors were quiet. Private and free parking area. Washer and dryer at lowest level—courtesy quarters and laundry pods were provided; thank you! Mrs.Elizabeth went beyond measure with ensuring I was okay from the time I booked the service up until my last days there. She is attentive and overall, I was at ease to be in her space and also around her when needed. I’d think solo travelers would feel safe in the vicinity. Thank you to Mrs.Elizabeth to the staffing team. It’s been a pleasure. Will highly consider booking again.

STAY HERE - no regrets. The apt building was easy to find with a pull thru drive to unload luggage and a lobby for my family to wait in while I parked. Parking was affordable and close by using the app as suggested, many within a 10-minute walk. Getting the key was easy and the apartment was clean and tidy, exactly as described. The city view was stunning, you can see Lake Michigan and on a very gusty morning we could see the massive wave whitecaps from the window. Plenty of household items available from plates and cups to linens and soap. The building was well maintained, safe and the residents friendly. The amenities (pool, gym, bball court, *jacuzzi was not open yet) and the rooftop lounge and views were all great! Stephanie was attentive and touched base a few times to check in, but we didn't need anything! Location is walkable to much of the city-the Willis tower, Millenium Park and the Shedd Aquarium/Field Museum. Train is close too! Target is literally next door- so handy!

Work great for us and 2 children. Plenty of space and easy access. Parking was not an issue at all, either out front on W. North Ave or on Bell Ave (free). Train station was a short walk to the blue line into Chicago. Close to family so we'd stay here again for ease of access to blue-line, airport, parking, etc. Bedrooms were also quite and we did not hear any noise from the streets.

We were able to check in a little early since we arrived earlier than anticipated, quaint little apartment full of charm and history. upstairs tenants were quiet, perfect for 3-4 people. just a half block from downtown

Let me just say, the pictures don’t do this cute, cozy place justice! I’m big on hospitality and customer service, and Johana and Akos were beyond accommodating and communicative. I would dare to say this is the most accommodating place I’ve experienced so far! The space has such a good energy and flow to it — cozy, inviting, and with a beautiful sunset view from the kitchen window that you can enjoy right from the living room sofa. The views are stunning, and the building itself is upscale, clean, and even smells great! I enjoy playing some of the games that were pervaded( Uno and Jenga) and I appreciated that the TVs had all the apps, HBO, Disney, prime, Netflix etc. It’s in a great location, and I felt very safe throughout my stay. The only con would be some city noise, but it didn’t bother me at all. There’s a nearby train that doesn’t pass often, and again, it wasn’t an issue for me. I would definitely recommend this place!!

Gail and Bob were awesome! They communicated well with us as we traveled during the day. Their home is beautiful, clean, spacious and cozy. Convenient parking made unloading and loading simple. The bed? A-Mazing! Most comfortable we’ve slept in a long time! The jacuzzi warmed us to the bones!! We recommend The Hidden Gem to anyone traveling through Illinois.

We had a great time in this very nice condo. It was just as described and furnished very well. loved the movie room downstairs.

Jim and Maggie take very good care of their abnb ‘s. I’ve stayed in 3 separate ones and was more than happy with all of them. Response when needed is immediate and reactive. I’ll stay again with them at any chance.

Amazing place to stay, we had three families and had so much to do we could have easily stayed at the air bnb the whole time!! Hosts were very responsive and we can’t wait to come back.

Davis was a great host! Very proactive in his communication and responsive. Would love to stay again!

Had a wonderful time at this air b n b! Enjoyed the clean space and fun amenities!

Steve’s house and location was a great peaceful getaway for our family. House was as described and pictured. Steve was very responsive and friendly. We explored the trails nearby and returned to relax by the fireplace and in the massage chair (this was my favorite). We are a small family, but the house has plenty of space for a larger family or a couple of families. Steve allowed us to obtain our goal: to RELAX!

Great host will definitely be going back in the future

This house was accurately posted. it was clean, easy parking, lots to do in the house and yard, FULLY supplied, and easy to communicate with the host. my family enjoyed it so much. my grandson kept calling it the game house 😀. it was the best Airbnb we've ever stayed at. It was truly a great house!

Very nice stay! Felt much like home with lots to do including games, music, the hot tub was really nice & this is the first Airbnb I’ve been to where you can smoke! I also liked the projector in the living room😂 felt like we were in a movie theater lol. Monica provided great services even cooked for us and more, really appreciative and greatful for what she did. love every bit of detail inside the place from floors to the ceiling!! HIGHLY Recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable place to get away 11/10* Gots to respect the rules tho!

Will's place is exactly as described. We were in town to visit colleges for our daughter. The location is close to public transportation which allowed us to visit both schools without a car. The unit itself is in a nice part of Chicago. There are several restaurants in walking distance. We absolutely loved the decor and added touches of the unit Will was also very responsive and accommodating.

It’s clear Francis wants the experience to be fun and it is. Cool extras with the Polaroids, Christmas tree, projector in the BR… nice balcony with a view.
