This apartment is convenient to anything you might want to do in Hyde Park. The building is old, and as such has small elevators, dark stairways, creaky floors, and other things that go along with old buildings. But it was quiet and clean. Parking was variable: one night I was two blocks away, one night I was across the street from the entrance. Restaurants, convenience/grocery stores, coffee shops, and other retail are all very close and within an easy walk. Communication from renter was very good. I would rent again.
