Rafael’s Place is a quaint & cozy apartment that gets the job done but could use a little TLC.
If you’re looking for luxury, this isn’t that but if you’re looking for a clean, cozy and decent place to rest your head while in the Chi, then you’ve found the right place. One downfall is the parking. With so many multi-unit homes on the block, street parking spaces fill up fast. Due to permit parking on one half of the street, we had to park around the corner on the next street one or two nights. Also, with it being a 3 unit apartment, the thermostat in this unit also controls the upstairs and I wasn’t aware until Rafael told me after I turned the air down. I’m somewhat cold natured but I had to be mindful of this. You can also hear the TV or radio of the lower apartment in the living room & front bedroom very loud & clear.
Rafael was easy to communicate with and was very prompt in response to any inquiries and he was also great in accommodating me on my need of a later checkout. His tenant that lives in the lower apartment was very nice as well.
Overall nice stay and wouldn’t mind staying there again.
