Great place to stay for solo or couples. Breakfast service is incredible.

This used to be Ray's photo studio, because he was a professional photographer. That probably wouldn't matter to most people, but I am also a professional photographer and I really enjoyed talking with Ray about birds and his travels. I really appreciated the indoor parking, and the breakfasts were very large. The staff was very friendly and helpful in explaining everything that we had access to in the building. It would be a great stop for kids because of all the games available. Loved it, and will stay there again the next time we visit Chicago!

10/10 Exceptional

A very unique, fun, and accommodating place to stay. They made check-in super easy. The building was fun to explore. The breakfast was excellent! Even though they were out of parking in their garage, there was plenty of free street parking available in the area. Definitely would recommend to anyone staying in Chicago.

This B&B is a gem. Loved it. It’s like staying in someone’s huge, comfortable home with a fabulous hostess. Plenty of parking, creative decor, and the huge made to order breakfast is fabulous. They have snacks, homemade baked goods and all kinds of drinks in the kitchen. They serve breakfast until 11 for late risers. Laundry, sauna, steam room. Will definitely stay again.

I chose Rays s it was conveniently located near my client. A B&B would never be my choice for a business trip but I feel lucky I found this place. Great accommodations. Felt like a mini vacation. I’m returning when I can.

8/10 Very good

Unexpected Gem!
My niece and I stayed at Ray's for the Billie Eilish concert. The beds could have been more comfortable BUT the next day when we were checking out they actually had all new mattresses delivered! So that's nice! The property manager was great! The breakfast *chef's kiss*! And the free garage packing?! Come on! I felt safe, comfortable and told my bff this is where we're staying for. Our next trip to Chicago! The sauna and steam shower were nice too!

What isn’t to love about Ray’s?! The staff were friendly and welcoming, the breakfasts were delicious, and the room was cozy and comfortable. Not to mention, close to transportation and the area is safe and walkable. I’ve found my go-to place to stay whenever I visit Chicago in the future!

Our family loved our time at Ray's. Our boys slept in the bunk-bed lofts. Great location in a cool neighborhood in the heart of the city. Close to the free parking lot for Cubs games. Incredible breakfast and hospitable customer service. Thanks, awesome hosts!
