Overall it was a spacious, comfortable place to stay that’s convenient to a lot of the best Chicago has to offer in Old Town and Gold Coast, but I probably wouldn’t stay here again. It didn’t seem like the right value for the price.
First, the L is very close and quite loud, so if you’re a light sleeper this likely isn’t the right place for you.
This place has all the amenities you need but the kitchen fixtures are also showing signs of wear and tear and so don’t work their best (oven, dishwasher, sink/faucet). The front gate of the building and the front door to the unit also don’t latch consistently when you close them.
The large downstairs bedroom isn’t very private if you’re sharing with friends or family, since there’s no door. And parking in this neighborhood can be really tough. Street parking is free except on permitted streets, but an empty spot is hard to come by.
