The pros: Kendal’s apartment is super cute and perfect for anybody who is a guest in Chicago. They have a QR code when you first walk in that you scan that will take you to a welcome website with a ton of great information. The space was clean and tidy. And the responses to messages were quick. Parking is free and it wasn’t difficult to find a spot right in front of the house.
The cons: The detergent used on all of the linens and towels was so pungent my friend was too nauseous to sleep with them, and I had an asthma attack and got extremely sick the first night. We ended up having to go to a sketchy laundromat at 2am, it was awful. And the apartment had three other separate diffusers that made the air unbearable. They are aware of what happened and I’ve suggested a scent free environment, but just something to mention during booking if you have scent sensitivities.
Things to know: the bed in the master is foam but definitely firm. It’s a basement unit so there are 4 stairs that go down to the front door. Make sure to scan the QR code and take advantage of the recommendations they make.
