Wonderful Property
We booked this location for our annual girls trip. We had a wonderful stay. The property owners had every detailed covered and the communication leading up to, and during our stay was excellent. We loved having a grocery store connected to this property, and the doormen watching over the lobby were very cheerful and helpful. Our location was right in the middle of the city, so we could walk to most everything we wanted. Thank you for a lovely stay. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Great location and things I wish I knew before booking
First of all, the location is perfect for easily getting around the majority of attractions we wanted to see. The unit is very clean. There is even a Jewel-Osco in the building, so grabbing supplies is quick and easy.The building (and apparently all high rises in Chicago) are regulated so either the heat is on or the cooling is on, the unit itself can't be switched. The unit was quite warm so we had to sleep with windows and doors open in order to reach a comfortable temp, but that added to the light and noise during sleeping hours.I marked the communication with the manager a 4. I'll preface this with saying I rent 6ish times a year, so perhaps I'm more experienced than others, that said...There are placards throughout the unit reminding you to take your shoes off (FYI - a stool in the entry way would help facilitate this), no smoking, etc. I also received several extremely detailed emails/texts regarding how the unit is to be used and treated. I realize each of these likely comes from a prior poor rental experience, so to all renters, don't be that group.

important details about the property
there was one misleading thing about the description. My family went there to spend time together vs traditional buying a bunch of gifts. the first night we were there, we were playing charades and having a great time, music, ect. I was contacted by the owner to tell me i had to trun the radio off. It was his radio playing christmas music on the friday night of chritsmas weekend at 930pm. which is well before stated quiet time. We did. We ended up leaving the property and were out sgith seeing and recieved another un prompted text stating we have a zero tolerance policy and you will be asked to leave if it comes up again.... we weren't even there at the time of the second message. It is a great place, wonderful in fact, my opinion is that there is a neighbor near this location that is just generally an un happy person.If you and/or your company are boisterous and plan to let loose in at the property this might not be a good fit. Otherwise it is really an amazing place with a breathtaking view.

Home Sweet Home Chicago!!
We have stayed at this property numerous times & each time in a different unit. We love it here--the location is perfect for walking everywhere, the Jewel grocery store is right next door & the Red Line "L " is also just outside the door which we use to go to Wrigley Field. Weber Grill is a great restaurant across the street. Will stay here again.

Fabulous Mag Mile proeprty!
My family and I stayed here for 4 nights. The unit was perfect for our family. It was comfortable and gave us enough space and also exciting for the kids to be in a penthouse. The building amenities were also A+; this was the first vacation where I have worked out every morning before getting the day started (being from a different time zone helped!). The CTA red line is right outside the door and it's a short walk to the river. 10/10!

Spectacular location and view
Our family vacationed for a week and we were exceedingly happy with the location (subway is mere steps away plus close to the River, shopping and restaurants), building amenities (outdoor pool, free Starbucks, 1/2 court basketball, and dog park),and apartment amenities (beautiful views, comfortable beds, pool towels, laundry, separate upstairs suite).
Everything was great and the apartment was spotlessly clean!
However, If you are a late sleeper bring eye masks. The east facing apartment is bright in the mornings!

Excellent stay at the Grandplaza penthouse. Lovely views and a spacious and well equipped apartment. Great communication with owners and wonderful location, next to grocery, restaurants etc. Construction in Chicago makes driving challenging which was the only issue with our stay and independent of this great location. We would stay again.

Fantastic property
Property is great! Views are incredible, owner communication was prompt and courteous, location is perfect. We have stayed in this building before and love how convenient it is to Michigan ave and the grocery store. Safe and secure building. If I had to list a negative, I’d suggest removing the queen bed and putting a king bed in the downstairs bedroom. I’d also put a few more lights in the main sitting area. Was a lovely apartment and definitely would and will stay here again.

Unfair extra charge and old towels
The owner charged us for something we absolutely know we didn’t do- so we were very disappointed - apparently there was a stain on the comforter- however we never sat on the bed and disputed this extra expense - also towels were very old and used
