The apartment is nice and well decorated. The layout is also very cool. It is located underneath the main house which I was a new experience for me. Unfortunately the floors are thin. There is a daycare that they run out of the rest of the house so through the day you’ll hear kids running and yelling mostly between the hours of 9-3pm. They usually wake up fairly early to move furniture around to mop and clean. There is a grey curtain the separates a sort of back room and to my surprise and staircase leading up to the rest of the house. I felt a bit uneasy knowing that they could just walk downstairs at anytime if they so wanted but I don’t think it happened as I was not there the entire time. The main part of Chicago is about a 20-40 minute drive depending on the traffic. The neighborhood is beautiful but the people were a bit sketchy. I took a walk one of the mornings and was catcalled multiple times, saw a woman almost taze her I believe to be baby daddy, and three men yelling over one another. Most of the other neighbors outside seemed to just ignore it like it was an everyday occurrence. There is a decent breakfast spot called the original pancake house within walking distance. Everyone that worked there was very friendly. Despite all of that Elizabeth was quick to respond and allowed us an early check in which came in handy due to our early flight. She left us a bottle of champagne and provided waters as well as coffee and tea for the kurige.
