Anton was a great host! I contacted him when we were about an hour out of Chicago, his response was timely and very intelligible. I was able to communicate our approximate arrival and following this, he was able to communicate when he would be ready to give us a walk through of the residence and answer any questions we had for him.
Anton met us at the location and gave us a walk through. He asked us to look around and notice if we needed any amenities he didn't previously set out for us. This was important, since he created a unique experience for us. He understands all guests are different and needs will change as guests check in and check out.
The location was very comfortable. My party easily fit three people, two of which are 6'3". Upon entering and leaving the establishment, anyone over 5'9", make sure you duck and dodge the over-hang above the stairwell.
The neighborhood felt very safe. I was walking back from the venue I attended around 1am, going through multiple alleys and main streets around the residence; I never once felt worried, nervous, or scared to be out walking around. Anyone we met and spoke with were extremely friendly and helpful, giving us directions and answering questions from out-of-towners!
Parking is non-permit outside of the location. This may sound cumbersome, but I assure anyone reading, parking was extremely easy to find. Upon our arrival, we found multiple parking spots just outside the complex. If you are planning on going downtown Chicago, this rental is very close to the blue line "L" train, which connects to the efficient mass public transit system in Chicago.
Inside the residence, everything we needed was there. We had access to wi-fi, a television equipped with a Roku box, a coffee maker, a refrigerator, a sink, a microwave and oven/stove top, a desk, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower. The H/VAC (Air conditioning and heat) worked very well, we always had a comfortable temperature among my party of three. Again, Anton made sure our stay was unique to our needs and asked us to look around to make sure we had everything we needed! I will be looking for availability to Anton's rental next summer when I am back in Chicago!
