We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was clean, well equipped (great coffee and tea tray and Disney channel on the tv!), and in a fantastic location. We walked to great restaurants, Whole Foods Market, and Trader Joes, as well as to the University of Chicago campus--all within 5-25 minutes. So convenient! We also found free street parking easily. Because our apartment was next to the elevator and stairs, we did hear occasional voices and footsteps, but nothing that was too loud or disturbing. Our bed was very comfortable, which is particularly important for my husband, who suffers from sciatica.
