The space
(Pssst... Quick favor if you're thinking about booking: Please read the entire listing as it likely answers any questions you may have. Thanks!)

To access the building, we send you an email to give you, and your group, access to a simple key system using your phone.You walk up the stairs to the elevators, and take the elevator to the top floor, the 8th floor.

When you exit the elevator, you turn right and then left down the hallway to your home. When you enter the home, it opens to an open, spacious loft. There is a dining area, a kitchen, a living room, a half bathroom,and private patio for those staying on the first level. The private patio gives you a fresh feel and a cool cityscape view.

If you walk up to the 2nd floor, you will find a spacious loft with two full size beds, a huge closet, and a full bathroom. This is truly a special place, and we look forward to making your stay a 5-star experience!

Q: Is the neighborhood safe?
A: Very much so. 24 hours a day.

Q: PARKING?
A: The home is very easy to get to via public transit. If you decide to drive, we recommend apps like SpotAngel or SpotHero to find free or cheap parking ($10-20 / night).

Q: Do I need to bring towels, a hair dryer, or linens?
A: Nope! we provide all these things. We also provide you with a starter pack of toilet papers.

Q: When can I check in or check out?
A: Check in is 4pm and check out is 10am. Early check ins can be difficult if there are guests who checked out same day. We ask for an early check-in, or a late-check out fee, if you request either.

Q: Luggage Drop-Off / Storage?
A: If you do not have flights that coincide with our check-in and checkout times, you may store your bags with Radical Storage near our property. It allows you to store your bags for your optimal time :)

Q: Can I come and go as I please?
A: Yes. And we wouldn't trust any listing with which this isn't the case.

Q: Is the place professionally cleaned between guests?
A: Yes, and we take pride in providing a clean home for guests.

Q: What's my total booking price?
A: We honestly have no idea. With fees included, it only shows the guest how much they pay. This figure should be present after you enter your dates. Note that, pricing varies on a daily basis, and it actually uses some crazy algorithm to adjust it automatically, so I don't actually control this.

Q: Are the beds comfortable?
A: Very. Some guests say they're the best they've ever slept on!
Guest access
You have access to our whole home, the private balcony, and the full size gym on the ground floor.

Great place!

We really enjoyed our short stay in the South Loop. The listing is close to all kinds of public transportation -- L, buses, etc. It was easy to get to Museum Campus and Michigan Avenue. The heating is a bit tricky to get right (turning on the radiators helped to warm up the chilly main area, but then needed to be turned off at night because it was too hot for sleeping), and the apartment could use some additional lamps or overhead lighting. The loft stairs made me a bit nervous with kids, but they were careful and handled them well. Our kids loved playing Pac-Man and foosball in the main lobby.

Don’t waste your time

What a joke- this host took insurance money for property and payment (close to $1,000) and CANCELED day of! Host messaged that there were too many kids per adults (3 teenagers and a 10 yr. old, 2 adults). We were stranded in Chicago. Not much help from Vrbro, still waiting for my money and “comp” Onekey support. We had to drive an hour and a half away to find a place to stay; Super 8 was the only place that could accommodate us.

Appartement très agréable

La propriété est tout à fait conforme à sa description. Couchages agréables, appartement très propre, et la terrasse, quoiqu'un peu bruyante à cause des climatisations de l'immeuble, est vraiment un must ! Emplacement parfait pour découvrir la ville, et propriétaires très réactifs.

Just what we needed!

We were in town for business and this unit worked out perfectly. Comfortably slept four adults in their own beds. Owners of property did a good job communicating. Plenty to do within walking distance. One minor suggestion is that's it's time for a little TLC. With that said I still gave it 5 stars and would recommended this unit! Thanks

Weekend Training

It was easy communicating with the property managers. They were attentive to our needs. Shower backed up and they fixed it quickly. Who ever did repair, left mess in shower which we cleaned up after a long day of work. We suggest having more lighting in space. Kitchen and bathroom walls needed to be painted better, too

Location is great, condo was alright

The location in the neighborhood and on the top floor are great, although there was practically zero view! The unit needs more lighting in the living and dining rooms, and the light was out in the upstairs closet which pretty much meant it was unusable. We needed more blankets, more hand towels and washcloths, more kitchen gear (no ice cream scooper for example!). The seating area was very cramped and the tv is quite small. Some games or cards in the place would be nice. Also the photos in the vrbo listing are mostly photos of a different unit. Overall definitely did the job, but 5 stars it was not when we were there.

Clean and good location

We had a great weekend at the Sonder apartment. It is in walking distance to the Shedd and the field museum as well as many restaurants. You can grab a divvy bike right across the street and bike easily to all of the attractions in Chicago. Apartment was very clean, bed was comfy, and overall it was a very simple stay.
