We stayed at Rashad’s place with our six kids. The house is bigger than pictured. Plenty of seating space to relax after touring the city. It felt just like home. The beds are comfortable. The neighborhood is great, quiet and family friendly. There are two parks with playgrounds just down the street. Very close to tourist attractions if you’re driving. Parked right in front of the home and never had an issue finding parking. Rashad was responsive and made sure we had what we needed and were comfortable in his home. He made excellent recommendations for date night and family fun events. This will be our spot next time we are in town. Thank you Rashad for your attentiveness during our visit!

Charming place within 10 minute walk to CTA. Extremely clean and well appointed Airbnb with everything needed for our stay in Chicago. Equipped with an alarm system so felt extra secure. Would definitely book again when coming back to Chicago :)

The home was absolutely much bigger than any of us expected and it was beyond beautiful! The home had everything we need as well as free private parking which was a huge perk and very hard to find in Chicago. It was in the perfect location being just 10 minutes to every major attraction even with traffic. There was police presence the first night but not was did we feel unsafe, I even talked to some of the cops and they said the neighborhood is a safe place and usually very quiet which tells me that first night was just a fluke. Overall we loved our stay and will absolutely book again, which will happen since we visit Chicago a lot. Thank you again Rashad for an amazing stay!
