16 Sept 2026Lovely BNB with a large shared kitchen/dining area and separate, spacious rooms with private baths. Very clean, in a pleasant and quiet neighborhood in Old Town. Convenient to downtown. Free street parking is also convenient. Would gladly stay here again.

17 Jun 2026We had only a quick overnight stay at Sono but hope to visit for a longer time in the future. This house is beautiful! The communal kitchen, patio, and rooftop deck were a surprise and added bonus. Our room was the perfect size, had a comfortable bed, good linens, and lovely, very large bathroom. We appreciated how quiet the home was and really enjoyed the snacks and breakfast in the kitchen. Also really loved the Old Town neighborhood and hope to explore it more in the future.

Very clean!! Management is both helpful and friendly! Breakfast had healthy options. I plan to stay again next time I’m in town.

20 Jun 2026We LOVED staying here on our visit to Chicago. The hotel is quiet, the rooms are very comfortable, our host, Jose, was impeccable. The morning breakfast choices were just right.
There is a nice clean frig that we used to stash some of our personal items that is allowed as well as access to a nice outside area with tables. My ONLY suggestion to the hotel ( and I do mean only) is that the pillows were flat that suited my back sleeping husband but slightly below par for side sleepers like me. Even with flat pillows, we plan to visit again and stay here!

11 Jan 2026This is a hidden gem in Old Town. Much better than staying in a chain and much more comfortable. The room was perfect and we had several options to walk to dining.
We will definitely be back to stay here.
