My wife and I are Seniors (70) and I picked this B & B from the web taking into account all the reviews on Tripadvisor. We spent 4 nights here and enjoyed meeting 2 other couples and a couple of young men from Spain. It is an easy walk to the rail station and a comfy ride to the City.... more

Just a warning for anyone thinking about staying here. I reserved a room in May for Labor Day and was charged the full amount. When I had to change my plans A FULL 2 MONTHS PRIOR to the date of my reservation, House 5863 kept my money until after Labor Day, at which point they still charged me 50% of... more

We stayed here for 2 nights, really enjoyed our stay! At first it was quite weird because we found nobody in there to welcome us... then we really appreciated the fact that we could use all the kitchen and other facilities as we wished! there's also plenty of food you can eat any time! The room was very clean and... more

We traveled from Denmark and absolutely loved this b&b. The room was nice and clean, the other guests were friendly and the owners were very helpful. I appreciated that all of the information about the location and key codes was emailed directly to me, and that we could collapse into our bed without any hassle or check in. The kitchen... more

I was delighted to find House 5863 for a recent quick trip to Chicago -- it was in the neighborhood I wanted (Andersonville) with plenty to do, plus good friends nearby. Pluses: No interaction with other guests; like others who have reviewed this place, I really didn't have a sense of whether there were any, except that I bumped into... more

I really enjoyed staying here. True, there's no welcoming committee to greet you when you arrive but everything is laid out for your stay; info on the city, entertainment guides, computer, fully equipped kitchen, well-stocked fridge, taxi numbers etc etc. What else do you need? There's a cute little roof terrace to have breakfast on if it's sunny and there... more

I've stayed in dozens of B&Bs, from California to Peru, and hundreds of hotels all over the US and a dozen countries around the world. I don't recommend this B&B and I'll never stay here again. Something about the place reminded me of the hotel in The Shining -- I never saw anyone who works here, and felt like I... more

House 5863 has to be one of the best bed & breakfast in Chicago. The staff is super friendly , the place is extremely clean and the best part of it all is the price. The rate for the weekend fit in my budget perfectly considering the location and short notice. Definitely would recommend family and friends to stay at... more

Had the opportunity to spend two nights at House 5863. The facility was very well decorated. Our room was nice. My wife and I loved the place. The price was very reasonable for what we got. We come to Chicago often and will undoubtedly stay there the next time we go. more
