Nathan and Jason were excellent hosts! Location is perfect, we got to meet their pup Lulu who let us pet her if we walked in the gate while she was sunbathing, and the Airbnb is clean and well appointed. We had a lovely stay and would come back to this Airbnb again 100%. Thank you guys!

This was a perfect place for my family. I am glad we were in the basement, my grandson never stops! The subway stop, food choices (ice cream Sundaes and carmel apples, hot dogs, coffee shops), and nearby parks were all good! We’ll be back!!

This stay was excellent! It’s a very clean and comfortable space in a great location! A short walk to the main drag of Wicker Park, as well as Bucktown, Logan Sqr & Ukrainian Village. Best yet it’s a stones throw from the Blue Line L stop (which also takes you directly to and from O’hare). Last but certainly not least are all the great cafes and coffee shops nearby! Nathan was super accommodating and quick to respond. We highly recommend this place, it was perfect for us and our toddler.

Located in Bucktown right north of pretty Wicker Park. We booked this unit for my elderly mother-in-law for an entire August. We found it extremely neat with all furniture in good condition; the mattresses stand out as more comfortable than most AirBnB's we've rented in the past. It came with enough coffee pods for a month and almost all little things you need in an apartment, like shampoo, etc. For 1 or 2 people it is spacious, but each of the two beds would also sleep 2 couples, and storage space is good for a vacation home. Nathan is a very organized and responsive host who answered most of our questions before we even thought of them. It's a short foot walk to the Blue Line, which leads both to neighboring Wicker Park (1 stop only) and into the heart of Chicago. It also directly connects to O'Hare. The neighborhood is quiet, but once in Wicker Park you find plenty of evening entertainment if that's what you want. There's a nice coffee shop and a couple restaurants around the corner, and an Aldi a 10 minute footwalk away for groceries. The Bloomingdale Trail, Chicago's version of NYC's High Line, is within 5 minutes on foot. Our favorite "amenity", entirely optional, was Nathan's dog Lulu. She's super friendly, very well-behaved, and if you want to will follow you inside for belly-rubs.

Nathan is a really hospitable host. He is a very friendly and easy going person. Easy to communicate with and also good to have a conversation with. He is also very knowledgeable of the local area. Really recommend you stay with him and I found my spot next time I come to Chicago.

Nathan was very easy to communicate with throughout my stay. Great location- I loved staying in my old neighborhood & got to check out some of the new coffee shops (even though a great selection is there for guests, which I also appreciated & enjoyed). The space was clean, comfy, cool (very hot days during my stay), and quiet which is exactly what I needed on this busy work trip. I'm a dog lover and Lulu was a sweetheart and a lovely host as well!
