Excellent location! I can't rave enough about it - A+++ The neighborhood is wonderful - apartment is a block away from a street with great restaurants and coffee shops, and also a block away from a CVS so you can get any necessities. You can see downtown from the back deck, and it's so easy to get wherever you want to go for sightseeing. The parking space in the back is the cherry on top. Loved it!!! The apartment itself was very clean and surprisingly spacious with three bedrooms and 2 baths. Rosanna was very friendly and accessible and answered our questions promptly.
The only things I would mention are NOT criticisms, just FYIs - The apartment is at the top floor of an older building, so if you're not good with steps, that's something to keep in mind. Also, there isn't a TV. So bring books or a laptop or iPad if you're someone who wants to decompress a bit before bed. Like I said, these weren't problems for us, just something to keep in mind if either of these things are important to you. I can't think of a better location to explore Chicago from.
