“Wonderful Chicago home in perfect location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 October 2010

My friends and I just spent 5 wonderful "girlfriend" days at Old Town Chicago Guest House. This beautifully appointed home is exactly as described. The living room is warm and inviting creating a great space for gathering and talking which girlfriends need. The well stocked kitchen makes the morning so pleasurable and is such a great perk. The beds are comfy,cozy and although you want to stay tucked in.......... the city of Chicago is calling. Location, location, location! You are within walking distance to the "L" train which will take you downtown or all the way north to Wilmette. You can also walk to "Old Town" where there is a plethera of restaurants and night spots. And then there is the Lincoln Park Zoo!!
Michael and Liz are gentle, caring hosts and their attention to detail like maps and restaurant suggestions is invaluable and this makes the unfamiliar comfortable and stress free. I would highly recommend staying at Old Town Chicago and will definately return.

“Upscale Elegance, Down-Home Comfort!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2010

I highly recommend this rental property. It has everything you could possibly ask for and more! I stayed here recently with a group of friends. This property is perfect for a large group, very spacious. Each of the four bedrooms has it's own private bathroom. All of the rooms are large, and the beds are comfortable. The "common area" includes, plenty of seating in the living room, a large dining area/table, and a fully stocked kitchen. (By fully stocked, I mean down to the bagels, english muffins, cream cheese, yogurt, juice, milk, coffee, cereal, ramen, popcorn, etc. ) My favorite part of this property was definitely the rooftop deck. It was so refreshing in the morning and very relaxing in the evenings, great view of the city! Honestly, I can't beleive we found such an amazing property, with all of these amenities, at such a reasonable price. If you're searching for a place to stay and you've come across this place, STOP SEARCHING! You've found the one! This place was clean, stylish, spacious, and in a prime location. The owners were wonderful! They were gracious, and kind. They did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. Great service! Five Stars! Two thumbs up! A+++

“Great Place, Location and Ambiance”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2010

The place was great! Lizz and Mike were great hosts/landlord/rentors. The furniture and decor was very worldly and elegant. They provided food, great conversation and also had the place all set up for our arrival. The location was perfect: walking distance to the beach, a block away from Old Town restaurants and the best part all cabs knew where the location was without explaining to them the major crossroads. Thanks again Mike and Lizz, we all had a great time!

“Most homey and best value in Chicago”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 July 2010

I reserved this by seeing the photos online and the B&B website. After talking to Liz, one of the owners, I knew it was the place for me. I was not at all disappointed! In fact, it was one of the best stays I have ever had in Chicago! Liz & Michael are extremely accommodating, gracious and want you to have a great time & enjoy Chicago. The B&B is in a prime location - in a very upscale neighborhood with a 5 min walk to the train or bus (and a 24 hour Starbucks!), but very close to downtown.

I loved the B&B because we could use the kitchen to cook a lot of our own meals and save money and enjoy some family time together. I was there with my parents & sister and we just wanted some space of our own to visit. Liz & Michael provided that for us.

The breakfast & snacks are really great & when they say "gourmet coffee" they mean some really good stuff!

Location is excellent with many great shopping & restaurants within a 5 min walk & the accommodations are OUTSTANDING. Best value in the city!!! Free parking with a reserved spot & breakfast/snacks.

“Comfortable, Clean, and Charming!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 May 2010

Staying at the Old Town Bed and Breakfast was one of the most memorable parts of the weekend. The house is situated in a prime location--in Old Town, near Lake Shore Drive, and minutes away from Downtown Chicago.
The house itself is a work of art with its history, architecture, and decor. The hosts are two of the nicest people who truly try to accommodate their guests. The house had everything you needed-from towels, breakfast food items to a computer, internet connection, and even a workout room! The place was spacious and had four levels and was able to accommodate our large group, yet the gathering space provided for a cozy atmosphere allowing us to mingle.
The only downfall was the brown-line nearby that was close enough to make its presence known, although truth be told- the noise was easy enough to ignore and did not get in the way of a great weekend.
If you’re looking for a comfortable, clean, and charming place located in a choice area this would be it!
