For airport planning, Midway is notably closer than O’Hare (about 6.6 km vs. 18.6 km), though actual travel times can vary with traffic. Guests sensitive to noise may want to consider that reviews mention late-night coming-and-going in surrounding apartments.
What guests say
Guests frequently note responsive communication from the owner and helpful handling of issues that arise. Reviews point to a generally cozy, comfortable base with useful basics like kitchen access and convenient proximity to local dining and transit. Critical feedback centers on space and sleeping arrangements: despite a “sleeps 4” claim, guests report it functions more like a setup for two, with an air mattress crowding the living area. Some reviews also mention maintenance/finish and cleanliness concerns and note potential noise from nearby apartments, plus stairs that can be difficult when carrying luggage.
