We loved our stay at Nicole & Jason's apartment! The check-in/out process was seamless, and the location was fantastic- lots of accessible shops and eateries, plus the train station was a very short walk away (and they gave us a transit card to use, plus a gift card for a local spot!). They were very flexible with timing based on their guest schedule, which was so nice for our flight out.
The apartment itself was adorable, with so many great little touches- the welcome sign, wonderful snacks, games, and fully stocked with kitchen/bathroom items. It was a little more spacious than I expected too, and was great for remote work.
Because it's in an older building, yes, you might hear a little noise- nothing that ever bothered us and it's too be expected if you've lived in a city apartment. We found it cozy, charming, and very suited to our needs. We'd definitely recommend it for a couple looking to explore Chicago- this was an amazing experience and incredible hosts!
