Very clean comfortable accommodationsThe condo is very clean and well equippedVery clean and well suppliedHost:
The communication with the owner is very thorough and in timely mannerknow that your rental rate does NOT include an amenity you would expect in any good hotel or well appointed homethey had terrible experiences with other vistors and thats why they have a super-strict and demanding tone of voiceThe most amazing things about this property are the viewsand even when Jim came the next day to untangle them sufficiently to let the blinds down most of the way the vents did not close completely and there were light leaks everywhereRead more reviewsLocation:
It is also a very convenient locationThe property is ideally located in downtown next to red line walking distance from The Magnificent Mile and lots of attractionsAnd so much else was within walking distanceThe location in the River North area is fantastic and many top ranked restaurants are within walking distanceAnd the location is amazing
