The location was great for the music venue we were going to. We were able to walk there and back from the apartment and we felt safe.
The apartment had a gate with a code to get down a few steps to a path to the unit and the walkway is fenced and gated.
There were many joggers, walkers, bicyclist on the street.
The kitchen had a bottle of wine for us when we arrived. Provided by our host. That was nice. Thanks again.
The kitchen has a microwave, fridge, stove coffee maker, etc but I let the host know another pan or two would be helpful. We like to make our own breakfast. I managed but another pan or two would help.
We ordered from Benny's Pizza for dinner. The host referred us to Benny's in the guidebook. Good pizza, expensive, but tasty and hot.
The apartment was not fancy, but it was private. Towels, linens etc were adequately provided. It had minimal furnishings. It reminded me of a Days Inn hotel kitchenette suite with two bedrooms.
There were parking spaces along the street and the host provided permit passes, located on the bulletin board inside the unit. That was a nice feature as we were able to leave our car, walk the neighborhood, take the L to downtown. etc. There were many beautiful murals on the buildings to enjoy along the way.
It was a different experience for us to stay in a city apartment like this. We really enjoyed the ease of the location
