"Very disappointing"
TripAdvisor user rating 2.0 out of 5
Reviewed November 11, 2024
I may not have read the small print but didn’t realize the bathroom for my room was in the hall and accessed by a keypad— very frustrating in the middle of the night. The shower pressure was terrible and there was no fan, just an open window. Breakfast food was minimal and full of preservatives— clearly bought in bulk and intended to last a long time. Worst of all, my deposit of one night fee was not returned for two weeks. On the plus side, the neighborhood is lovely.

"BEWARE FRAUDSTER. PLENTY of other places to stay that don't have REPEATED FRAUD in the reviews."
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed May 03, 2024
BEWARE! OWNER IS A LIAR AND A FRAUDSTER. I WAS OVERCHARGED $170 OVER QUOTED PRICE. I waited OVER a month to see if I received ANY communication as to "why". NONE came. My only correspondence was a text thanking us for our stay. When I posted a less than stellar review, Owner LIED and said we damaged the room. AMEX is now checking into him. I have the City of Chicago (couple organizations) looking into his "alleged" FRAUD activities. ODDITY: Claims OVER 20 years in business but the website only has reviews going back 16 years. I realize that is only an "exaggeration" but is typical of his cavalier attitude towards basic business ethics. BTW, you libel me, and that's another offense against you. I HATE FRAUDSTERS

"Mixed experience"
TripAdvisor user rating 3.0 out of 5
Reviewed August 16, 2023
Was in Chicago to help celebrate a special event and House 5863 had an ideal location close to Andersonville - the pre-check in Covid vaccination requirement seemed a bit odd, but nonetheless we complied. Overall the accommodations were fine, nothing remarkable but generally satisfactory. One thing to note, however, was that the maintenance and cleanliness of the property - rooms and common areas - left quite a bit to be desired. Dust bunnies under the bed, water stains on the ceiling in the bathroom, and just a general lack of attention to detail in the cleanliness department in the common areas, including dusty floors and furniture. So probably not a come back place for us or a recommendation that we'd make for others, but if you're looking for a good Andersonville location and can overlook some of the issues we observed, House 5863 could be an option for you.

"Do Not Give This Crook Your Money!"
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed May 18, 2023
Please do not patronize this business. I booked a room via Hotels.com and when I tried to pay for it I was told it "didn't go through" and I needed to call the hotel with my credit card info. After I did this I found out I was charged a higher rate than on Hotels.com, and when I asked for a credit I was ghosted by the manager. I had no choice but to cancel my booking, which I did, and he didn't even return my security deposit of $150. I had to file a dispute with my credit card company, which was successful, and I received full credit, but I would never patronize someone so unethical no matter how nice their place.
