This stay was fine. I’d like to say that our point of contact, Norma, was lovely and very helpful.
The place itself was alright, it was quite clean. It has a full kitchen and the fridge was super clean. We made ice for ourselves and were able to cook after making a trip to the grocery store. The couches were fairly comfortable to sit on in the living room as well. The bedroom was a little on the warm side (classic Chicago apartment with no central AC but a hearty window unit/dehumidifier) the AC which worked fairly well in the living room didn’t fully reach the bedroom — it wasn’t hot but it was a little warm, there is a ceiling fan which helped us keep cool overnight. Note, we travelled when it was 95 F each day and staying above 80 F overnight. I think any other time of the year this AC and fan setup would have been perfectly comfortable. The bathroom had a slight bad scent to it (weird plumbing, I think) but had a fan and a window which helped, it wasn’t too bad.
Overall though we had a fine stay, it’s conveniently maybe a 12 min walk from the nearest L / CTA train so we were able to travel into the city easily on our own. Several cool restaurants (family/suburban not fancy) nearby, including breakfast places, sushi, pizza, and a handful of Polish places including a cool looking Polish bakery/confectionery/restaurant.
Decent spot for the value, would consider staying again!
