This apartment worked well for our needs. Two of us were in town to visit our son and even though it is a small place and older (typical Chicago apartment though) we enjoyed or time and our son came hang out with us and it is a good space. I did a little cooking and the basics were there in the kitchen to meet our needs. The place was as described on the listing and the couch and bed were comfortable and we slept well. Just across the street from the lake and easy walk to a park on the lakefront. It is a residential area so not a lot of things to walk to be we expected that to be the case. We did okay with street parking most of the time - just a couple of times we had to go a block or two away but overall no issues.
The wifi worked well while we were there. That is always important to us and we had no connection issues.
Just so you know, that while there is a thermostat in the apartment, the owner controls it so you will have to contact him if you need a change. The weather was pretty mild with mornings on the cool side and the apartment got pretty chilly those mornings. I would stay here again but probably not in the winter.
Overall, a very enjoyable stay and lovely place.
