I chose this place for my mom who was visiting from out of town. She loved the studio, especially the cozy bed! It was so helpful for her to return to her studio after a long day and be able to rest in a comfortable bed. In my experience, it is rare for aging bodies to be able to sleep comfortably in Airbnb beds and we were so grateful. Andrea was great with my questions so I could stock the fridge in advance of my mom's arrival.
There were two things that were difficult and I am sharing in case others have hardships similar to my mom. There are about 15-20 unlit and steep concrete stairs leading up to the studio and the beautiful view looking out over the city so, because of some health issues, my mom couldn't come and go without my being there to ensure her safety. She is very independent so this prevented her from doing things she would have liked to do alone on Lakeshore and Grand, like getting coffee or going to the bookstore. If you have difficulty walking up hills or deal with vertigo, you might want to ask for a photo of the stairs to assess the situation more fully.
Also, my mom was overwhelmed trying to use the entry code instead of having a key so I did that for her each time. I think most people are used to these things, but it's worth a mention for those who are not.
Despite these difficulties, we really appreciated the place, but wanted to give you a heads up in case there are people that would have a similar experience.
Warmly, Tamara
