Loved this cute, clean flat! We were there for a long term stay and had a great time.
The best parts:
- the flat feels very new and updated, with a huge smart TV over the (also huge) comfortable bed. The desk has a similarly fancy, brand new feel. Everything looks just like the pictures!
- air conditioning works great!
- location is less than a block from the CTA green line station, making it super easy to get downtown or anywhere else you’d like to go quickly
- Inka is a kind, responsive, and helpful host. We barely had any issues during our stay but whenever we did, Inka was on it immediately!
A few points to be aware of:
- the kitchen is quite small (doesn’t have a dining table and has barely any counter space) so as long term occupants who liked to cook, it wasn’t ideal for us. The oven also didn’t seem to work very well. Just keep in mind if you are a chef :) we used the little couch area as our dining space and it ended up working fine.
- hot water takes a longgg time to heat up, so start running the shower ten minutes before you actually need it! Again not a big deal but if you have somewhere to be it can be inconvenient to wait for the shower.
- location is fantastic in terms of proximity to transportation, but the surrounding area itself doesn’t have much going on. Lots of empty storefronts and not many good restaurants in the immediate blocks. That being said, it was nice to sleep in a quieter area of the city, and safety was never an issue.
Overall, we absolutely recommend this apartment and feel lucky to have found such a cute place in Chicago! Thank you Inka!
