This was the perfect place for our family of 6. We loved being in a historic building and still fairly close to the city. There was a parking space for our van which was also a huge plus. John was great to work with. It was really one of the nicest rentals we have ever stayed in. The beds and bedding were so cozy and the amenities were very professional. We would love to come back!

Group of 5 stayed in apartment. John's place is exactly as advertised. The unit is well equipped and host is kind enough to supply lots of candy to be enjoyed as well as books about Chicago and games to play. The two bathrooms are kept in immaculate condition and lots of towels are supplied.Overall, a great place to stay in the Little Italy neighborhood with an easy walk to all that is on Taylor St.Would definetely stay again!!

Wonderful apartment and location

The apartment was lovely! We had 3 very comfortable bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. He had snacks for us and coffee which we enjoyed. The property was very clean and the location was fantastic! We were close to Wrigley Field, the bean, beautiful parks, and downtown. We also had excellent communication with the owner. Each time I messaged him, he responded promptly. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Chicago hockey trip

Everything was as advertised in the booking. We had more than enough towels and supplies for our stay. The host goes above and beyond to make it a welcoming space. We had 1 issue with neighbors but the host responded and resolved the issue immediately. We hope to stay at the exact same place our next visit. Highly recommended.

Spring Break Vacation

This Graystone property has a ton of charm and easily fit our family of 6. The owner has excellent communication. We were a 15 min drive to all museums. We were only 4 min from the El /Train to downtown. The property was clean and had many details others miss. Great place will stay again

Oh the neighborhood

What a great stay for a long weekend. Only a block away from amazing restaurants and a couple of blocks from bus and train stops.The host was top of the line, responding quickly to communication, kept the steps, stairs, and sidewalk cleared of snow, and provided lots of snacks and amenities. Our only incident was the poor choices of the upstairs tenants the first night with a loud and long lasting party. That is not the fault of the host or VRBO just the risk of a building with multiple apartments. Overall, I loved my stay here and it was a fabulous addition to my Chicago memories.

Little Italy Gem!

The property was well maintained, decorated and stocked. The accomodations were very comfortable. The location was ideal as it was close to the Polk station and many restaurants. I would highly recommend Stax for breakfast. nts.

Dreamy home-away-from-home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Mr. Walsh was responsive, his offering was exactly like the listing - even better, actually! We were spoiled with all the amenities and small details that truly transformed this family trip into a joyously memorable experience. Thank you to John and his crew, we loved everything about staying here! Close to all of the great food spots in Little Italy, transit is easy to navigate to and from, and every room was beautifully adorned and maintained.
