Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in North Side

Loved our stay ! Would love to stay again !

Was a great place. Never would have thought you could raise farm animals in the middle of Chocago, but it was cool to see. It is close to some train tracks and has that farm smell, but neither were that bad. Would definitely stay here again!

Great location and amazing property. Clean and cozy! Highly recommend!

Jerry's place was fantastic, easily one of the best experiences I've had with any of the short term vacation rental companies. I can only say that I wish more were as kind and accommodating as Jerry. The place was well appointed, with new, comfortable furniture. I would absolutely stay again.

Great property. Host was very extremely responsive and helpful with any questions I had. I will definitely do business here again once I return to Chicago!

Great stay. Host came in the evening to fix cable issue. Appreciated. Location was close to downtown.

Great place for our short stay, comfy beds

Greg was very accommodating! If you’re looking for a stress free place to chill this is the spot :) The space was clean and easy to get to.

Me and my wife went here for our pre honeymoon and had a great time. Lena has a great house and very private from the community. Truly amazing place and you can see the river from inside the bedroom.

Really nice place surrounded with trees and plants. You can hear the birds in the morning. The place is really nice retreat.

No problems - good host. Was able to do my own thing and just come back when needed. Trains are about a 10 minute walk away

Justine and her 2 kitties were wonderful! Great kitchen and large bedroom. Would 100% recommend to anyone staying in Chicago! Absolutely great experience!

Great stay, beautiful neighborhood and great host

We stayed for 2 months during home renovations, and rehabilitation from surgery. The home was just what we needed for our family of 5 and 2 dogs. It was welcoming, comfy and perfect in size. The host were great to work with as we had to extend our stay several times until our home was finished. The beds were so comfy, and those pillows were amazing.

I wasn't sure what to expect but this was a very comfortable pad. I had no issues finding the place and Davi took time to come acquaint and give me the lay of the land once I checked in. I felt right at home and it was relatively private for me even though it had shared spaces. I will definitely rebook here if the need arises again. All in all, great host, great location and great price. Tony

The host was very responsive and helpful she really made the stay feel as if me and my girl were at home while we threw a little club themed get together for my girlfriends birthday it was great enough space and beds I would most definitely book again in the future and would recommend worth every penny I paid

We really appreciated how responsive Saurin was. The place is a great location - on the subway to the airport and downtown Chicago!

gorgeous views and very nice condominium. great balcony and very safe. The elevators were super fast. Even though the actual location is different than the one mentioned in listing, it still wasn't disappointing. There is enough space for a small family or a couple.

I had a really great experience staying at this Airbnb. From the moment I booked, the host was extremely responsive and helpful, answering all my questions quickly and clearly. The check-in process was smooth and easy, which made a great first impression. The space itself was very clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. You can tell the host puts a lot of care into making sure guests feel comfortable. The bed was cozy, the amenities were thoughtful, and everything was stocked and ready for use—just like a home away from home. The location was also convenient, and I felt safe and relaxed throughout my stay. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a stress-free and pleasant stay. I would definitely book again in the future!

This was truly one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, everything felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully prepared. The space was not only beautiful and impeccably clean, but it also had so many special touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. What made this stay exceptional, though, was the host. They were incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about making my visit as perfect as possible. Every question I had was answered so promptly, and they offered wonderful local recommendations that made my trip even more memorable. It’s rare to find someone who goes above and beyond with such sincerity, but that’s exactly what this host did. I left feeling not just like a guest, but like a friend. I am so grateful for this experience and would return in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommended to anyone considering this stay — you will be in the very best hands!

Great location and amazing host! Super walkable area that’s also close to the train. Saurin has a bunch of local recommendations and is very friendly. The room was also much bigger than expected!

I feel lucky to stay at this place during my 2 month visit to Chicago. Barbara and James were amazing hosts, always caring and making sure their guests feel at home. They were also super helpful about everything a first-time traveller needed to know, from weather to transportation, food to community events. The apartment itself was cozy and lively, way beyond what it seemed on the photos! A variety of apparatus made a seamless transition to life in Chicago. Meanwhile, a Walgreens was within 15 mins walk. A Trader Joe’s and a Target within walking distance. The neighborhood is peaceful and diverse. Nearby, there were top restaurants of Mexican, Peruvian, Vietnamese, Indian, Middle Eastern, Greek, Haiti cuisines, just to name a few. Public transit was extremely convenient to either downtown Chicago or Evanston. Despite the possibilities to adventure, living expenses were easy manageable. Because of Barbara and James, I had an unforgettable and amazing journey at Chicago.

My family and I stayed at Lisa's place while attending my son's graduation, and we enjoyed our stay. Lisa and her team are pleasant, helpful, and attentive. And the unit is clean, spacious, well-appointed, and centrally-located. We found it easy to travel to and from UChicago via car in under 10 minutes, so attending graduation activities was a snap. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lisa's place, especially if you're headed to Hyde Park or Bronzeville.

Saurin was a wonderful host! Super helpful and the place is in a wonderful location!
