Our stay at Zencity was great. We were in a pinch once our first Airbnb ended up being a flop and found this property to be better than we could have expected!!
The unit itself was clean, stocked, and very airy for a studio. There’s a full kitchen which made heating up leftovers like pizza in the oven a slam as well as a microwave, full size fridge, and dishwasher for your convenience. No coffee maker but just downstairs is Pedestrian Coffee whose coffee is really satisfying. Also in the unit is a washer/dryer and an ac/cooler that’s adjustable. If you rather enjoy the fresh air and don’t mind the sound of the city you can always open the patio door.
Speaking of city let’s talk about location. This unit is right next to the L’s red and purple line (Belmont stop). If you are iffy about renting a car because of traffic and parking no need to if you are willing to ride the L. Riding the L is really easy and if you are unfamiliar where you are going plug your destination into Google maps and put the option on the public transportation logo (looks like a bus). The navigation system will tell you exactly where you need to walk and what line (or line options) you can take to get to where you are trying to go.
Major must sees and dos are all about 15-25 minutes away and we had a rental car the first two nights we were there.
There is a parking garage around the corner from the apartment building and is calculated based on hours. Up to 24 hours was under $30.
Right around the apartment building are a number of restaurants, unique shops, theaters, and late night bars to hang at. The apartment is also close to Boystown as well as Wrigley field.
The host was very responsive and offered to help us with any questions we had about the property. We ended up staying an extra night.
Would stay here again!
