The apartment is as described. The entire place is very clean inside. The streets are smelly and their is a lot of constant areas of construction. We drove into Chicago and parking is horrible this includes the location of the apartment. When we arrived it took us 40 minutes to find free street parking on the street. We had to park 3 blocks away the second time and walk our luggage that far. Parking on the street is quite congested and the other areas are private residential parking for example on Fry. If you drive into Chicago be aware that parking may or may not be easy to find. That would be my only downside to staying is parking.
