I had a mostly positive experience staying in this apartment. The location in Lincoln Park is wonderful, and the communication with the co-host, Raul, was excellent. He met me at the apartment and offered his help. The communication was clear and efficient. The apartment itself didn't quite meet my expectations, however. The building is old and gloomy. The kitchen and living room area do not have a window; the only daylight comes in through the bedroom. The place is quite old and needs a few essential repairs--on the toilet, some kitchen details, and some other smaller, obvious damages here and there. This place was a lot more affordable than other rentals in the city, so in the end, I would say that the lower price is sort of justified because the apartment is old and a bit shabby. It would have been helpful for me to know all this ahead of time. As it stands, I would not rent it a second time.
