Our stay at Dino's place was a good value for the price. The best part of the apartment was the location. We were a very short walk from a lot of great restaurants, bars and shopping. We rarely had to uber and most of the sites we had wanted to see were within walking distance.
Safe neighborhood with the occasional noise due to the apartment being adjacent to an alley. If you are looking for a super quiet spot, you might want to choose another location. But if you don't mind some city noise or will be out of the apartment often, then this is a good choice.
The only complaint was weak water pressure in the shower when using hot water. The bathroom and kitchen are very small, so this truly is a spot meant for 1-2 people who are looking for a place to crash.
The building is on the older side, but again - the location makes up for the small space and older building. Great spot for an individual or couple who is in Chicago for a short trip. I think if we were in the city for more than a weekend we would have wanted a larger space.
Dino was great at communicating and responding, and let us drop our bags off early due to our early flight.
