Nice apartment overall. Communication was straight forward from start to finish. 3 bedrooms was perfect for a weekend stay with 2 other couples. If you’re looking for a nice big place to stay for the weekend with a small group, and don’t want to spend the big bucks for a hotel, this will work perfectly fine for you. The only negatives were:
A) Not the best neighborhood. Not far from nicer areas, but the building is located on a mostly vacant street with overgrown vegetation and in a neighborhood that has seen better days. There is a locked steel gate and two other doors to unlock prior to entering the apartment, so by no means did we feel unsafe.
B) the smell. Unfortunately there is a stale smoke/old musty smell. Unsure whether this is from the lower unit or simply because it is an old building. Either way, don’t let this deter you. There could be much worse things.
Overall it’s a place to stay that is in decent shape and is a short distance to downtown Chicago. If you are simply looking for a place to lay your head for a couple of nights and not break the bank, this will be fine for you. Good host, easy instructions, stress free.
