The location cannot be beat just minutes away walking to the Lincoln Park Zoo and several good restaurants in the neighborhood. It’s a quaint clean basement with almost everything you need available to you. My only recommendation is bring a portable fan or two with you because you cannot control the temperature of the room and it got fairly warm during our stay. Our portable fan was a lifesaver in this instance. ##### Alex P.

Perfect location as well. I would definitely stay here again! ##### Chris Q. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Scott M. 16 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Purrfect location This clean, charming, and well-appointed basement apartment below the host's home was conveniently located to all our needs in Lincoln Park and events during our long weekend stay. The location in Lincoln Park was the best part of this stay. If you like cats, this might be a great option for you, as the host's hissing cat may pay you an extended visit under the bed, as was our experience. We arrived during a spring heat wave to discover that the air conditioning was not operable. The friendly hosts advised that they were on the repair waitlist after we complained about the temperature in the basement, and they quickly provided us with a fan. We understand that things break at the last-minute, and we were fortunately flexible enough with our plans to spend as much time elsewhere as we possibly could so that we still had a enjoyable weekend trip to Chicago. We've used VRBO's main competitor many times before to book our frequent Chicago stays without any issues, but given this was our first time using VRBO, we will not be using VRBO ever again based upon our experience. ##### Scott M.
