This apartment is in a lovely, quiet leafy neighbourhood of family homes with houses representing various architectural styles. It's an easy walk to the train and buses downtown, with plenty to see and do more locally on foot. A wide range of local cafes, bars and restaurants are within in walking distance, as well as small neighbourhood grocery stores, pharmacies, etc. It is a short walk from Lincoln Park and the zoo.
The apartment itself is one floor up from ground level with two flights of steps. It's roomy and comfortable, with two really good sized bedrooms, each with their own external access to a narrow deck with stairs down to a shared outdoor area (and laundry and rubbish/recycling) at the rear of the building. The beds were comfortable enough.
Some effort could be made to fix or replace a broken wardrobe drawer in one of the rooms and a damaged door in the other.
We had a two and a half week stay in the apartment and have suggested to our host a couple of additions that would improve a stay of that duration. The kitchen is roomy and has a very good stovetop/oven and fridge/freezer.
The bathroom was perfectly adequate, though for those with any mobility issues, be aware the shower is over a bath that can be slippery.
The host wasn't always as quickly responsive as I would have liked but was polite and remedied a couple of issues we had relating to access and supplying some missing appliances.
The apartment served our purposes very well during our extended stay and provided a quiet place to call home in Lincoln Park.
However, it would be useful to have a second set of keys available so one can be left in the electronic keybox for a guest arriving or departing separately from the other/s. Perhaps, if you plan to do some activities separately, ask the host for this.
Would I stay here again? Yes I would.
