We loved the location as we were going to ravinia. This for us was perfect that we just needed somewhere to stay and sleep that was nearby ravinia (10 min uber ride at the most). The host was fantastic and kept us informed and made sure we had everything we needed. We will reach out again once we go to another ravinia concert.

Uptown Highland Park

Great little place for us to stay and enjoy our time in quaint Highland Park. So EASY to walk everywhere. Catch the train and it’s easy access to the other suburbs or the City. We enjoyed our time very much.

Studio Apt

Overall my husband and I were happy with the studio apt. Communication with the host was easy and the place was clean and had all the amenities we needed during our stay. The place was centrally located with easy access to shops/restaurants as well as the Metra system to take us into Chicago. The one drawback is that there are no windows but the skylight adds enough natural light to the space and we were there to sightsee and not stay for extended periods in the apartment.

This is a smallish, clean, quiet studio apartment in downtown Highland Park. But it has NO windows! (It does have a small skylight.) Getting into the building via lockbox and getting into the room itself are clumsy (especially the unusual lock on the room's door). I likely won't stay there again.

Bare bones stay

Overall the apartment was fine. There are no windows except for a very unforgiving sky light above the bed. There’s no way to shut it so the sun just beats down in the morning. The apartment was older with no upgrades or remodels. It was fine for the price and we were really only there to sleep and get ready in the morning.
