Great location, good for families

We loved staying here: super easy to check in, well appointed apartment furnished with kids in mind (there was a pack and play, high chair, booster and kid friendly plates/cups). One block from a park, quiet neighborhood. Good host. We’d definitely stay here again!

Great stay

I booked the Sleep Sanctuary for a trip to Northwestern and appreciated the communication and ease of check-in. The garage was a nice bonus too given Evanston's parking. It was perfect for myself and two old friends visiting for a reunion weekend. Thanks!

Peaceful Evanston stay

We loved the place. It was quiet, easy to walk in the neighborhood and convenient to the places we needed to get to. The beds were very comfortable and the house was well equipped. I especially loved the hammock chair, the tomato plants and the apple tree in the back yard!

Really lovely home and neighborhood with great amenities that made for a relaxing stay (access to a garage space was amazing!). Hosts were friendly and responsive, everything was so well thought out and communicated that we really had very few questions. Really appreciated access to a fenced yard for our dog, great neighborhood for walking her, and there was plenty of room in the living areas to have her dog bed in a good spot. Almost impossible to find a host willing to accommodate a Great Dane, made traveling with her stress-free and we would 100% stay here again.

We were in Chicago for a graduation ceremony and this was the perfect place to stay. It is close to public transportation and shops (grocery store and coffee), and the neighborhood is beautiful and safe. Although there was construction happening close by, it was quiet inside the house. The hosts were communicative and welcoming. The house itself is comfortable and spacious. All in all, it could not have been a better stay.

Perfect neighborhood location and hosts.

Great walking neighborhood for our wolfhound. Great grocery stores nearby. Quiet clean and everything we needed in a guest house. WiFi was fast. Would definitely stay here again when we visit northern Chicago. The garage parking was an added benefit.

We had a great trip to memorialize my Uncles passing. 4 of us stayed very comfortably on all of the sleeping options. Very responsive and helpful host who uniquely to rental homes, did not have a laundry list of chores to do at the end. Great neighborhood, quiet, great for walks and 5 mins from the Bahai temple. Indoor garage parking. Highly recommend!

Nice short stay

Cute property, dog friendly, very clean, AWESOME shower and very close to Northwestern Stadium complex. The extra monitor for a laptop in the sunroom was a bonus add! Would have loved another one on the other desk in the first bedroom as well. Opportunities: wall outlets need to be updated. Hard to plug into a number of them. Surge protecters would be a quick fix for that problem. My son said the futon in living room was uncomfortable to sleep on and there were ants crawling on him in the night. He moved to the sunroom futon and said it was much better. Overall a very nice place with friendly owners and a great, quiet and charming neighborhood. The few issues are fixable and I would definitely stay there again!
