Deceptive

It is listed as a garden apt, which by definition is an apt on the ground floor of an apt building having direct access to a backyard or garden. Although it was very cute, this is a converted basement. It states in the listing that you "may hear steps from the upper unit". You WILL hear them, and they will sound like a herd of cattle above you. In fact, if someone above you is sick and throwing up, you will hear this as well. Unless no one is in the unit above, it is not a peaceful/restful place to stay. The mattresses are beyond firm, so if you are comfortable sleeping on the floor, this will not be an issue for you. We would definitely not return.

Cute place to stay but just know it’s a basement apartment.

We had a great time in Geneva. Overall the place we stayed was very nicely decorated, comfortable and close to town and the river. The bikes are a nice touch. Two things to be aware of when renting: the owner communicates a lot. There are contracts to sign and lots of back and forth. Way more than any other VRBO I’ve ever stayed at. Tons of rules and reminders of rules. It was a little stressful. The other thing is this is a basement apartment. There is an apartment above and ANY walking around, let alone kids running or people going up and down stairs especially at 5 am will wake you up. I’m not a terribly light sleeper but this was an issue. Kind of disappointing since one thing we were looking forward to the most for this getaway was sleep! But if that doesn’t bother you it is an amazing place!

Very clean and cozy

The property was very clean and perfect for our situation of coming and going. The listing doesn’t show the outside which doesn’t have much curb appeal. If someone planned to spend much time at the property it might not be ideal especially outside.

Great location, easy access to the river, a good place to recover

I had back surgery at Rush and was required to stay in the Chicago vicinity for 3 weeks. We live in Virginia but used to live in Geneva. The apartment was a good place to spend quiet time and do some required walking. Two bedrooms that were neat and clean with sound beds and TVs. The kitchen was equipped with about everything you would need to make any type of dinner. Living room was nice with a large screen TV. Roku was a little bit different but did find channels that were okay. This apartment was at garden level with half windows. The rooms were bright and the ceiling was not too low. I am six ft and my son is 6 3, neither of us had any problems. One thing that would be useful are overhead lighting at the dinner table. Fox river is a 5 minute walk and from there Batavia and downtown Geneva are good hikes. It was a very good stay.

Very nice area/apartment

The neighborhood was very nice. The neighbor above was very friendly and even visited with us outside. The property was very clean and had everything you need. I just suggest to add wine glasses, extra batteries for roku remotes and AC unit in other bedroom. It got a little warm in there. Otherwise it was very nice.

Wonderful stay!

Cita’s was the perfect place to stay on our little getaway to Geneva! The apartment was clean and spacious, bigger than it appeared in the photos. The decor is done so well with very comfortable beds and couch in the living room. The location was perfect for us being just a short drive from so many places to explore. We will definitely book again when back in the area!

Low ceilings feel cramped

Property was clean, but a few things made it one of my least favorite VRBOs in a long time. The low ceilings (7 feet) make it very uncomfortable— like being in someone’s basement. Also, super loud window air conditioning wasn’t very enjoyable. Aside from that, the property is clean and there is plenty of space — it looks just like the pictures. The owner has cameras in many places (inside and outside) and warns you about this multiple times before arriving. This adds some security to the property. I definitely would NOT stay here again.

Great stay with a few minor issues!

I enjoyed my stay , the location was great for my work trip and the parking / key entry was super simple ! The host was very responsive , however the number of automated messages reminding you of what to do and what not to do get a bit repetitive and can cause anxiety based on the tone and length of each message . I Believe I received 5 automated messages during the length of my 2 day stay. The wifi in the property was not reliable which is why I dinged it one star - even though I had host support me with the issue on the first day (thank you for the prompt phone call) , I still was forced to go to a cafe the second morning after Multiple router resetting attempts . Due to the location being in a basement you do not get the best service so hotspots aren’t an option so if you are working remote this may not be the best place for you until this is fixed . Another minor complaint I have is the efficiency of the AC Window units. It took awhile to get things to cool down, and if you plan to cook you must turn the kitchen unit off to avoid tripping the fuse which really can warm things up. Thankfully it wasn’t too warm during my stay but I can see this being a bit frustrating in the heat of the summer. Overall it’s a great location and is very cozy and enjoyable .

Darling property, thoughtful host

This is a darling property that looks exactly as pictured, comfortable and well appointed and is in a good location, nice neighborhood. The apartment served my sister and me well for the weekend. Cita was the ultimate host and speedy communicator, answering dozens of my communications. When one of our party had a serious medical issue come up ahead of our reservation deadline, Cita was very understanding and allowed us some extra time to determine if we needed to cancel or not. Bikes on property are perfect for riding along the Fox River and into the center of Geneva. Historic Fabyan Villa & Garden is just a few blocks away.

Comfortable and well equipped!

We loved how comfortable the bed is and decor. It had everything we needed to relaxed while visiting my son and family in Batavia. Easy access to everything! I wish I would have had time to cook in the well equipped kitchen. Well organized and everything you would need. My only complaint was having to sign a separate agreement which I found difficult to access and provide a scan of my driver’s license. I have rented many of properties and this has never been required. I did not feel comfortable providing my driver’s license info.
