My sister and I enjoyed our stay at the vintage apartment in Wicker Park. It's inside a small historic brick building from 1893 which added to the appeal. The apartment is large, clean, nicely decorated, and well-appointed. It's on a tree-lined street in hip and trendy Wicker Park and is walking distance to shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and convenient to downtown Chicago. The hosts Maggie & Steve were easy to communicate with. I had the pleasure of meeting them when I checked in. There are steep steps to enter the building. Since the building is historic, the locks were tricky to use and sometimes took some patience jiggling the keys for awhile to unlock them. The formal dining room is stunning and we ate some meals there. The bedrooms are small and I slept in the larger one with a firm bed. My sister slept in the tiny one under the stairwell with a plush bed. The updated bathroom is quite nice with a beautiful tile shower and the toilet was slow. The kitchen was fully stocked and has a toaster oven and no microwave. The back door in the kitchen leads to a private porch with seating and a tranquil view of a garden with birds chirping. The apartment was perfect for a vacation with my sister due to its two bedrooms, large space, and its proximity to Chicago's attractions.
