The best part about this stay is the location and the parking. It is close enough to all the things to do and to public transportation while also being quiet. Parking in Chicago is difficult (even more than in NYC), and most street parking in residential neighborhoods requires a permit, so having a designated parking spot was a big plus.
However, the place could have been much cleaner. There were stains on almost all the bedsheets, hairs in the bathroom, and the rooms were extremely dusty. All the art on the walls and the window sills were covered in dust, which made us cough and wake up with dry throats. The pictures in the listing must be from a while ago, because things looked much older. For example, the walls were covered in marks and weird sludge, especially in the basement, showing they have not been repainted in a long time. When we messaged Lourdes about this, her response was very quick and polite and she refunded half the cleaning fee, but we still feel we overpaid for what we got.
The internet was not fast and dropped constantly. The TV could not even connect to the internet or load Hulu, Netflix etc.
Overall, we were extremely excited for this stay, but were disappointed that the place did not match the description or the pictures. That said, it is hard to beat the location and having street parking if you have a car is crucial when in Chicago.
