I was so impressed with the cleanliness, comfort, and convenience of this place.
Pros:
Clear entry instructions
2 bedrooms
3 beds (2 double/full beds, one sofa bed in living room)
Excellent kitchen with bar, convenient refrigerator, and all amenities we needed
TV met our needs with streaming services
All spaces cleaned well
Linens and even many bathroom supplies provided
9-min. walk to Aldi and Market Fresh Foods (2 grocery stores next to each other)
This area of Chicago is socioeconomically mixed (some well-maintained and some poorly-maintained parts), but on a morning walk to the grocery stores, none of the ~30 people we passed were rude or made us nervous (but I wouldn’t go walking or jogging alone at night either–in any large American city)
15-min. walk to Garfield Park Conservatory
14-min. walk to Humboldt Park
15-min. walk to Conservatory-Central Park Station (green line)
13-min. walk to Kedzie Station (green line; from this station it’s about a 20 min. ride to the center of the Loop)
19-min. drive to center of the Loop
15-min. drive to UIC
28-min. drive to Lincoln Park Zoo
Upstairs tenant has a cute cat that greeted and entertained us outside
We saved a lot by staying here instead of at a downtown hotel
Con:
As the map makes clear, this place is some minutes from Chicago’s most popular attractions around the Loop–which is why it is more reasonably-priced
We would gladly stay here again!
