Ferdousi was kind and responsive even before my sister and I arrived in Chicago. She was very accomodating about the dates and the arrangements of our visit. She was also super friendly and helpful during our stay - she made some great and creative recommendations on where to eat and what to do during our visit to Chicago. We especially enjoyed the Navy Pier fireworks rec she made!
Ferdousi notes in her listing that the area can get a bit noisy, and this is true, though the powerful AC unit almost acts as a white noise machine, which was convenient. She also highlights the accessibility of the area, and this is also true - the location is FANTASTIC (subway station literally outside the front door of the apartment).
A few constructive notes... There was no real door on our bedroom (more of a flimsy shade covering the doorway that could be slid back and forth), which we were surprised and a bit frustrated by. We were also confused by the fact that the pictures in the listing seem to show a couch in the bedroom, but there was no couch in the room when we arrived, so we had to share the bed (which was fine space-wise, but which we had not planned to do). The WiFi was a bit spotty during one or two nights of our stay as well.
Finally, and probably most importantly, on more than one occasion, we returned to the apartment to find lit unattended candles in the space - this is definitely a safety hazard.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and our time in Chicago, and we liked Ferdousi very much! Adding a proper door to the room and ensuring that no candles are left unattended in the apartment would improve the space greatly.
