Annette and Makita were wonderful hosts! I really can’t say that enough. They prepared the apartment well ahead of my check in, and were very flexible with check in and check out times. If I ever had any questions or concerns, Makita was readily available to help me out. Because I was staying for a month, they also checked in on me every once in a while. They were also very welcoming of my furry friend :)
The apartment is a short walk to the Green Line and is only a 15-20 minute uber to the Loop, heart of Downtown. The surrounding neighbors are also very nice and welcoming. The only thing I would say is that if you’re not from a big city, it may not look like the best area to you, but I personally didn’t have any problems and would arrive late in the evening on a number of occasions. If you use common sense, you’ll be be more than OK. I always felt safe & having Makita and Annette right next door was great. Would definitely recommend for a stay in Chicago, especially if you’re looking for something long term.
