I initially came up to Chicago from Indiana and had found this place to stay for my duration. The area was lovely, arrangements were excellent and I loved the cottage feel to the Bed N’ Breakfast next door. If I’m ever in Chicago for another concert or to see more of the place, I’m coming back to Dorothy’s.

Parking is difficult. Closest designated spot was 2 blocks away. Booking was easy enough but communication between site and accommodation was inefficient. Email was not passed on for final access instructions to unmanned accommodation site. The finalisation process did not allow for visitors with International phone numbers to be contacted directly either. Login does not accept driver's licence picture.

Dissatisfied with our stay

Dissatisfied with our stay!! Our experience was less desirable than expected. Normal and customary check in time is 3pm, we couldn’t check in until 4 without added cost. This is in a predominantly LGBT neighborhood, not mentioned. The “quirky” old building was just not maintained well, so in disrepair rather than quirky. Mold around the shower floor. Tiny room with shared bathroom, not mentioned in description. The distance to Wrigley Field was only about a ten minute walk, which was great!

The property itself is in a great location and offers good value for the price. However, the experience was unfortunately overshadowed by poor customer service. Upon booking, we received multiple links with different sets of information—one with property details, another with check-in instructions, and other links as well. Assuming there was a master link as the webpage seemed to suggest, we missed the one specifically for check-in. When we arrived just after 4pm on 04/17, we used the keypad to contact the property for assistance. The woman who answered the call was unnecessarily rude and dismissive—something that could have been avoided with a simple, helpful response. A little courtesy goes a long way, especially in hospitality. The stay itself was fine, but the unprofessional attitude of certain staff members left a lasting negative impression. With better communication and a more respectful approach to guests, this property could truly stand out.

The property was clean and spacious. It looked just like the pictures online. The other roomies in the house were nice and clean. My bed was very comfortable including plush pillows.A little unorthodox their entry and breakfast but it all worked out. I look forward to staying there again in the future. The price was a major steal.♥️😊
