I booked Kay's place with about 10 days notice. Her rates and the communication was great. She responded within the hour to me. The area was nice and safe. It's a 10mins walk to the beach and walking trails on Lake Michigan. About 10-15 mins to Navy Pier / Magnificent Mile. Great location. Inside the condo was clean and modern. The furniture and decor were up to date and in nice shape. The reason for the 4 out of 5 stars was.
1. Going in and out of the front door (mostly night) was a bunch of bugs that would then get inside. Spider webs also were all near door. A good weekly clean and a bug light would resolve these issues (landscaping was gorgeous)
2. The inside of the bathroom didn't have a door handle on it, thus you couldn't close the bathroom door all the way.
3. If your going solo you won't have this issue but my boyfriend and I stayed here. It is a 1 bath and if were both going to the restroom the toliet takes a good 20mins till it can be flushed again.
Besides these minor issues above the stay was great and I do recommend Kay.
Enjoy Chicago!
