Lovely decor and comfortable beds, plus a full kitchen. Great new upscale grocery store (Mariano's) within 1 mile that offers lots of prepared foods as well. Nice coffee shop a couple of blocks away, but lacks area restaurants. Well kept historic neighborhood (same block where Louis Armstrong lived in the late '20's)! Some surrounding areas a little more questionable but overall we enjoyed the cultural and historic vibe. We used both the buses and trains which are all easily accessible, and you can reach almost anything within 30-45 minutes including walking and ride time. A 3 day CTA pass is only $20 - a bargain when you begin looking at area parking fees! I highly recommend the CityMapper app, it gave easy to follow steps to reach anywhere.
Good value for a 3 people stay - doesn't accomodate more very comfortably and there is an extra fee. It also does not have air conditioning, which I hadn't realized. Because it is a basement apartment it generally stayed okay and there are a couple of good fans (including one that cools) - but the night we used the oven it was a little hot! The host was wonderful - very helpful and responsive to any needs!
