Larissa was very helpful in sharing her home and providing suggestions for cost saving measures to enjoy the offerings of Chicago. This vintage apartment was clean and took us back to the styling of the 40's - early 50's and Eastern European decor like my grandparents' home. This included no dishwasher. Ceiling fans and/or window air conditioning units are used to keep the quarters comfortable . It should be noted that she must have ordered perfect Chicago weather both cool temperatures and no humidity, so no need for air conditioning. Thank you! The location was perfect for our activities and thankfully street parking was available. Larissa was readily available for all of our needs. Everyone felt safe at this very clean , easy to find location.
