Overall we had a great stay. Place was newly remodeled, spacious, and clean. The neighborhood was attractive, quiet, and good for walking.
Pros:
Newly remodeled
Host quick to reply
Average Uber ride to popular Chicago areas was $20
Neighborhood offered convenience stores & restaurants in easy walking distance
Neighborhood was quiet & we felt safe there
Three bedrooms all identical made is easy for a group
Cons:
If looking to cook a meal double check host provides all small appliances (we had to improvise without a toaster & can opener)
Did not have an ironing board (small issue but worth noting since I wanted to iron after unpacking and was not able to)
The driveway is shared with a neighbor (of course this is not the host’s fault but did leave us blocked in and host sent us to knock on neighbor’s door)
Overall a wonderful stay & the good outweighed the not so good by a lot!
