**This apartment is a hidden gem in Chicago**
We are two medical students who rotated at UIC and rented the apartment for 5 weeks.
The apartment’s location is perfect. 1.5 blocks away from the Pink Line (metro). Approximately 6 minutes to UIC and 10-15 minutes away by metro from Downtown Chicago!
The neighborhood is very calm and quiet. Sometimes you’d see some cute doggies being walked outside!
The apartment is clean, spacious, stylish (very well decorated too!) and has 3 bedrooms: 2 with a queen size bed and one with a bunk bed. It could easily fit 4-6 persons.
The beds are extremely comfortable (2 of them have memory foam) and there are many pillows for those who prefer — like myself.
The apartment has all what we needed in our daily life, from a coffee machine, toaster, knives forks and plates, mugs etc. Dishwasher, washing machine, dryer and an iron. Big TV with HDMI cable for those who love streaming series/Netflix/NBA/UEFA Champions League.
The decoration made us feel at home as soon as we stepped in. Paintings, antiques, a vibrant plant, and all the wooden items give this apartment a rich and genuine taste.
Parking was readily available.
Our Hosts have been wonderful even before we arrived until our last day. Very responsive and pro-active, whatever we needed and whenever we had questions, they were there for us.
Our caretaker who lives two floors down was always available to help whenever anything came up.
Overall, our hosts were very hospitable and friendly! And this is priceless.
If you want a quiet, relaxing apartment where you don’t have to worry about anything other than bringing your travel bag, this is the place you’re looking for. It is definitely worth more than whatever you’re paying.
If you have any questions for me, feel free to ask!
Thank you Alice, Tony and Tom!
