Vladimir's apartment is the place to stay if you come to Chicago!
We stayed there for a week and had a great time!
His apartment is newly renovated! The downstairs floor was completely ours and we had huge space to spread out: own living room, bedroom and shower - we were able to feel completely at home! The upstairs floor was also free for us to use. He has a big kitchen with everything you need which is open to the 2nd living room with a big couch and a huge flatscreen on which we were able to use Netflix as often as we wanted.
Vladimir was a really great host, giving us a lot of suggestions and recommendations where to go! He knows a lot about the city and we had many interesting conversation together.
The neighborhood is really nice as well, with Logan Square and Wicker Park in walking distance and well connected to public transportation like everywhere in Chicago!
Staying at Vladimir's place is an awesome deal and I'd definitely stay there again if I ever come back to Chicago!
