If you are looking for a comfortable, clean, and budget-conscious Chicago apartment in a great neighborhood I can't recommend Hugh's place enough. My mom is allergic to my cat so we always book a place for her to stay when she comes to town. To find such an excellent spot so close to my Albany Park apartment was a dream come true.
It is close to several great bars, restaurants, grocery stores, and parks; and getting around town is a breeze as it is just a few blocks from the brown line train and major bus lines. There are also Divvy bike stations aplenty.
We enjoyed morning coffee on the back deck, watched movies on the giant tv, prepared meals in the kitchen, and enjoyed several card games at the big dining room table. (I also loved soaking in the jetted tub.)
Communication was quick and informative, and the no-contact entry was a breeze.
Most importantly, the price was absolutely right for our non-profit salary/retiree budget.
We will definitely book again next time she comes to visit!
