Ibi’s place is as described. It was a bit nostalgic for me as I grew up in Chicago in a similar area in an apartment with a very similar layout including the built-in. I personally loved the decor, the place feels really homey. The only thing, I have a bad back and I know this going into any place I stay. If you can sleep on anything, this place will be perfect. But if you cannot do a springy mattress, you might want to look elsewhere or see if they have upgraded the mattress as it was a topic that came up during one of the check-in with us. I did end up sleeping apart from my husband on the twin bed in the other room which was a lot more comfy for me and my back so that also could be an alternative for you. Otherwise, the place is cute and my favorite features would be the coffee and comfy sofas where I curled up and drank my coffee before I started the day. The hosts checked in and were very quick to respond.
