Great little oasis! Normal Heights is a dense neighborhood, but this apartment was amazingly quiet, and Cody's backyard is a lush wonderland of succulents and palm trees. The apartment is spotlessly remodeled and comfortable, though I would agree with Cody's own comments that it is on the small side for more than two adults.
Cleanliness and communication were top-notch. The only slight downsides were the challenge of finding parking closer than half a block away (only an issue when loading/unloading; but ask Cody to let you in the alley gate, which makes loading/unloading a breeze); and the sofa pull-out mattress is very uncomfortable (you can feel every spring).
Other than those very minor quibbles (which didn't impact our enjoyment), it was a fantastic stay!
