Sophy Hyde Park

10/10 Excellent

"Uniquea"

Comfy 4 bedroom Apartment in the center of CHICAGO! 15 mins from Downtown!

8/10 Good

"Dylan’s place worked perfectly for what we needed. Easy and free parking on the street. Comfy beds. Not a ton to do in the area without driving but the area seems to be “up and coming”. The place is a little bare bones but worked fine for us. If you are a traveling family or have kids, maybe this isn’t the place for you but if you need a spot away from the hustle and bustle of the city and just need a place to crash with a decent bed this works fine. The price was great and we did find some good coffee and breakfast spots about 10-15 mins away. Overall a decent place to stay."

Villa Dubois Guest House
