Overall, the place was just OK. The hosts were very sweet, but we did have trouble getting in when we first arrived because the door was deadbolted from the inside. It’s an attic apartment, so if you are tall, you will probably hit your head a lot like my husband did. You can also hear some of what’s going on in the downstairs house where the family lives. There are no fans, and you have no control over the heating or cooling. The first night was pretty cool with air-conditioning, but we were hot the next few nights. The shower is really difficult to get into, and it’s sloped so it’s a little hard to stand upright, and I had a big problem even figuring out how to get the hot water to come on.
It looked like they remodeled the entire apartment without having any experience - which is great for them to be able to create a space to host, but as a guest, it just didn’t feel very nice. For the price, it was still the best we could get four or five nights, and overall it did the job. The area felt safe and it was a nice neighborhood, just a 15 minute drive to Logan Square.
