Excellent location, very historical building! Great stay, great host, will definitely rent again!
Great weekend getaway: clean, well appointed, and comfy. Such a short drive from Chicago and close to all sorts of fun exploring (towns and parks). We'll be back for sure.
We loved this unique property in downtown Utica, clean comfortable and wonderfully restored historic loft space. We appreciated all the thoughtful touches even down to the fluffy towels. Sweet treat coupons left by host were appreciated. Highly recommend this property and would stay again, this is a gem!

This historic loft was absolutely amazing!!! We’ll be back again!!!
The loft was stunning 😍 It was elegantly decorated and the view of downtown was beautiful. When our friends saw it they were very impressed. We would definitely stay there again.
My husband and teen daughter loved this loft stay! It was in the perfect location for noshing, hiking, antiquing and biking ( right off I and M canal path ). We will definitely book this loft again!

Beautiful cozy loft, perfect location in Downtown Utica. Owner extremely friendly, along with other local business workers. Highly recommend.
The location is outstanding and the interior is immaculate! Spacious and comfortable. Great communication with the owners. Do yourself a favor, if it's available book it!
Such a beautiful pad to call home for a stint. Excellently constructed and designed one-bedroom loft; perfect. In the heart of Utica, great proximity to parks, trails, eats, etc. The Illinois Valley, an extraordinary place. History abounds. The I&M Canal trail makes for an awesome ride. We met the author of The Starved Rock Murders, Steve Stout, on the Sainte Genevieve. He said to say hi!
We stayed for a weekend and we were very happy. The place is very clean and recently renovated. I would come back again for sure. The location is convenient for walking to restaurants and a short drive to the parks.
My husband and I enjoyed a weekend at the Suite Frances. The location couldn't have been better; we loved its proximity to Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Park. The street has several restaurants, bars, a brewery, and a cute cafe. I highly recommend the property; it's incredibly clean, updated, and the windows are amazing. We look forward to returning!
We had a beautiful stay. The loft is clean and perfectly appointed, exactly what we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway. It is located within minutes of Starved Rock and Matthiessen. The town of Utica was charming with plenty of great options for meals and drinks. Thanks for a great weekend away!
