This unit was a good value apartment in Chicago. We were travelling as a family of six, and we drove in to the city. We were looking for somewhere that had parking included, had space for all of us, was located somewhere close to tourist sites, and had a full kitchen. It was very hard to find a rental that had all of these and was affordable - but this apartment provided that at a reasonable price.
This apartment was larger than it looks in the pictures, and was very clean. The kitchen is fairly well stocked- however it did lack oven mitts, a tea kettle, scissors, and a dishwasher. The beds were very comfortable and there was space for two adults and four children (ages 6-13). The bath tub did have an issue staying plugged, so my son had trouble having a bath. The shower was fine. I would not recommend this apartment if you have toddlers or babies, but I thought it was great for older kids!
There is laundry in the basement. It costs $4 in quarters to wash and dry a load. The washer and dryer were industrial and did a good job.
The parking was on the street and is parallel parking in some tight spots! We were usually able to park pretty close, but a couple times we had to park and walk a block to get to the apartment. The unit is super close to Bus 60, which will take you right to the loop and from there we could access all tourist sites. It is about a 10-15 minute walk to the Racine subway stop. There are grocery stores and pharmacies within 15-20 minutes walking.
Overall, I think this unit is a good value for families travelling with older children.
