We enjoyed our stay in Chicago at Ishin's place. It's in a great location on the near north side, and while the entryway is on a busy street the bedroom is at the back of the unit, and being on the fourth floor was pretty quiet. The building is older (like most of the buildings in the area) but the unit is spacious with a large living room and kitchen. There are three flights of stairs up to the apartment.
The living room and kitchen were clean, and the A/C worked well to cool down the place- which you need on the top floor. There is a large TV with lots of streaming options, but with the unit being walking distance to many great bars and restaurants (check out Mesa Urbana a half block away) why would you spend too much time watching TV? The building and door codes were a good way to access the place as well and there are many public transportation options within a block or so.
This is a basic- not fancy- place in a great location at a good price for anyone who wants to be in the best part of downtown Chicago.
