Phillip's place was great and everything was as pictured. I would definitely stay here again.
The apartment is in a great location, walking distance from restaurants, groceries, coffee shops, the bus or train, the lakefront and plenty more.
Check in was easy, even though I had a later arrival, as was check out, and Phillip was very communicative throughout.
The unit itself was very cozy, with a very comfortable bed. It was nicely decorated too, making me feel right at home very fast. The building itself is very old (not uncommon for that part of Chicago) and the unit showed it at times, but it also brought some of its charm with old architectural details that made the space unique.
I worked remotely from here and the wifi was pretty reliable, albeit not the fastest, with no interruptions to my ability to work, have video meetings, etc. And two window air-conditioners made the space comfortable to work from—though, on the hottest days, they did have to work pretty hard and couldn't keep up as well.
Had a great stay. Definitely recommend Phillip's place!!
