Stayed Sep 20, 2025My daughter and I stayed at Janet’s place while we were visiting Northwestern. We had a great stay, the apartment was very clean and it matched the listing description. It was walking distance to dining and the train to Chicago, about a mile to the Northwestern campus and a block from the beach. If my daughter gets accepted to NW we plan on staying here again.

Stayed Aug 23, 2024We came back to Chicago for a frineds wedding and wanted to stay near NU so we could go visit the campus after having a child that attended there. The ability to have beach passes and bicycles for use made the visit easy to get around since we didn't rent a car. The bed was exceptionally comfortable the the bedroom and living space are large. It was a really peacefull place to stay. Thank you for your ease with everything!
