There is a four-bedroom short term rental on the property and it is rented separately. There are separate entrances for each and no shared spaces inside the building. You will have the three-bedroom duplex entirely to yourself.

ACCESSIBILITY:
There are 14 steps from the main floor to the bedrooms

NOISE:
This is downtown Chicago. You will hear noises. There is a train line a few buildings down; there are neighbors on both sides as well as above one of the bedrooms; there are city noises. As you can see from my reviews, this is not an issue for most, some even comment on how quiet the house but if you are looking for a place away from it all, I am afraid this is not it.

WORRY FREE CLEANING PACKAGE:
At check out you will need to take care of trash overflow, dishes, exuberant messes and any food you brought. The worry free package covers any and all cleaning. Just walk out in the morning (you do need to move furniture back if you make any changes to layout). Note that this fee is additional to my regular cleaning fee you pay when you book the place. This package is best for those who want to decorate, cook a lot, are traveling as a group and would rather split the extra fee than worry about anything in the morning.

DECORATING THE HOUSE:
You are welcome to decorate the house. If you attach anything to the walls, please use paint-safe tape and remove it prior your departure. There is a $200 glitter and confetti fee.

HOUSE RULES:
Unregistered guests are not allowed on the property. The presence of more than 10 guests is unlawful. A guest is anyone at the property, staying the night, or just visiting. Minors need to have a responsible adult present. IDs will need to be provided prior to your arrival for everyone spending any time at the property. This includes overnight guests or any visitors. There is a counter installed. I utilize a private security firm. If the counter shows more than the registered number of people or if I get a noise complaint from neighbors, security will be immediately dispatched. A $200 dispatch fee will be charged from your security deposit. Should they be unsuccessful in removing you from the premises, they will involve the police. This is not a place for a local house party.

SECURITY FEE:
Our preference is to have everyone's IDs on file, just like any hotel and most short term rentals around the world. You can forward them through the Vrbo messaging app. We understand that some guests have concerns with how the information is stored. We now offer an option of paying a $20 per person non refundable security fee instead. This fee will apply to any adult visiting the property, even if they are not staying overnight. If you choose this option, you will need to request an invoice from us . All other house rules will continue to apply.

GRILL: there is a gas grill at the property. I do not provide any supplies including gas. Frequently previous guests leave plenty behind and there is a gas refill station less than five minutes away.

WILDLIFE
You will encounter wildlife while staying at the property. Here what you can expect most commonly:
Spiders and ants are common in Chicago. They get as high as 95th floor of John Hancock building. While we do our best to combat them, it is near impossible during high season.
Bees, wasps, yellowjackets are abundant throughout the city. While we take care of any nests on the property, we can not control them in the air and beyond our boundaries.

BREAKDOWNS
I will use my best efforts to ensure that all equipment within the house is in good working order, although I can not guarantee that any equipment will not break down during your stay, and therefore such a breakdown does not constitute a breach of this Agreement or give Guest any right to any refund or rental adjustments made for any such mechanical failure. In the event of a breakdown, I will use my best efforts to remedy the situation as soon as possible after notification of the breakdown. There will be no refunds or rebates given for inoperable appliances or faulty equipment, unfavorable weather, interruption of utilities, or minor maintenance problems. No rebates will be given for malfunctions of cable equipment or reception that affects the TV or Internet access. Please remember that I can not fix a problem if I do not know about it so please communicate any issues promptly.

PETS:
I welcome pets however the following breeds of dogs are not allowed due to insurance limitations: Akita, American Staffordshire, Chow, Doberman Pinscher, Pit Bull, Presa Canario, Rottweiler, Wolf hybrid, or any dog that is a mix that includes one or more of the breeds listed above.
