Place looks brand newly renovated. Pros: plenty of free parking on street in front of house, location was great just 2 blocks from the "L" so we didn't use our car all week, safe quiet neighborhood, super clean apartment, nice touches. Cons: this is a basement apartment that in great but I'm 6'4" so I was a little to tall in places. I would say if your 6' or shorter this is perfect. This is a great place with a great location and would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to spend a few days in Chicago.
