Stayed Sep 28, 2025The area was great but the unit itself was a bit dingy. The windows were few and small. It's decorated with a southwest theme that was eclectic, but it is basically a basement apartment.

Stayed Sep 18, 2025Stayed here while in Chicago for a job. This was a fantastic place to come home to. The rental has an amazing southwest character full of art. Definitely not your standard boring room. The space was very clean and tidy with laundry on site. Convenient to shops, grocery, restaurants, and the train all while being a little quite haven. I cannot say enough about the hosts they were very hospitable and helpful.

Stayed Aug 5, 2025We loved the location but the place had cleanliness issues. Dirt and grease build up on microwave was an example. Laundry room was filthy. Communication with owner was very good. Location excellent in a very nice part of Evanston. Lots of good places to eat nearby and beautiful neighborhoods. I would recommend place only if cleanliness issues are addressed.

Stayed Oct 20, 2023What a cute, quirky artsy apartment. Everything we needed for a weeks visit to the area. We used the well equipped kitchen often and there was even a coffee grinder for our whole beans, John and Amy were welcoming and kind (be sure to visit Amy’s cool store). The only thing to be aware of is there are little steps down to the bedroom and up to the bed so if you have mobility issues be careful. We plan to return when we next visit family in Evanston. Enjoy the peacefulness!

Stayed Sep 23, 2023We initially chose this property due to the proximity to our family in Evanston. But the location turned out to be ideal with restaurants, shops, and train transport all a 2 minute walk! Parking was available but we were able to park on the street, no problem. The basement apartment was clean and the decor a pleasant change from the ordinary! Had everything we needed. GREAT garden/yard. Able to use that extensively for getting together with family & friends. You'll enjoy staying here.

Stayed Jun 12, 2023This is my new favorite VRBO, one I hope to return to in the future. It was exactly what we needed in terms of location and accommodations, and it was quirky and FUN!

Stayed Nov 23, 2021Perfect location to come visit local family during the Thanksgiving holiday! Very cozy and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine & snacks. Full kitchen stocked with many things needed to make cooking our portion of our holiday meal a breeze. Extremely accommodating to ensure we had our parking situation squared away as street parking is not always the easiest in this area. Walking distance to two favorite bakeries - Hewn and Great Harvest and most importantly, the Central St Metra train station for getting downtown Chicago. We would love to stay here again in the future!
