Don’t hesitate to rent this lovely garden apartment in Logan Square/Palmer Square in Chicago. The configuration is lovely. There are just a couple steps down and once inside the apartment it has a spacious feel. The excellent kitchen looks out over the dining and living areas surrounded by multiple windows dressed in classy 2” blinds.
You will definitely want to set an alarm if you want to wake up earlier in the morning. Otherwise, you may sleep two hours longer than usual, like we did. The room is dark and cozy. With its single window open you can hear minimal traffic sounds and people outside. Other than that, it provides its own natural blackout/sun filtering for great sleeping.
Also, it was lovely to wake up in the morning to coffee, creamer and cocoa provided by the friendly owner, Joanne, who lives upstairs.
The gorgeous bathroom is big enough to shower, shave, slather yourself provided lotion and enjoy cool ceramic tile under your feet. The recessed window next to the sink provides a place to set some of your favorite toiletries, while ample shelving offers storage as well. The towels are big and soft and the soap provided smelled divine.
A huge added benefit for Chicago was parking in the garage for no extra charge.
Oh and for Chicago, this area is beautiful to walk around with wide boulevards, parks, trees and lots of neighborhood restaurants and coffee shops.￼
