This residence is a mixed bag. Some remarks are simply because the building is definitely starting to show its age, some can be improved. Photos were not accurate to the current state of some of the furniture. Some items like the dining table and chairs are newer, but the couch seemed older. Floors are uneven in seemingly every room. With as compartmental as the property is, it is hard to cool it on hot days. I happened to visit on one of the hottest weekends, so just my luck. If you are a larger person this might not be a good option simply because of the space around the toilet. As a broad shouldered person, my shoulders were nearly touching both walls at the same time. Being from California, I think my interpretation of the word "huge" to describe some of the spaces was off haha. Not huge by my standards. With that said, according to one of my local friends this is a good area. The times in my Lyft when riding I noticed a bunch of bars and local eateries, but didn't to check them out. A nice surprise is the this is only 5 minutes from the firehouse that they film the tv show Chicago Fire which is open to visit. Quick 20 minute ride or so do downtown and the river for sightseeing stuff. If you feel like dining in, there are lots of options on Grubhub/UberEats that will deliver there.
