Best in Chicago, private, amazing garden space

We offer the highest standards of cleanliness. Excellent workspace with fast wifi and beautiful outdoor deck and garden space to relax. The most popular Airbnb in Illinois (Buzzfeed, Aug. 2017). After 12 years hosting we still enjoy making our space a special place…as one reviewer commented, "The pictures don't really do justice to how beautiful the apartment is.
