This is a solid value rental for Chicago. Location is great and the place was clean though it did have a bit of “I’m heavily rented” written on the walls and carpet. Truly appreciated some of the little things — a fresh bag of ice in the freezer, cool water in the fridge, shampoo, etc in the bathrooms and plenty of dish detergent (versus those lovely places that leave one pod for like 9 days). Again — solid value rental if you are looking for a great location at a good price.
Only two real points of frustration — WiFi went down. For the full four days. Owner and I communicated back and forth with our family trying to help — but we were just not able to get it taken care of. The only other “bone to pick” is the AC — probably not an issue during the cooler months but in July, the place just gets HOT if you leave for the day. The AC shut off every day when we left (but not at night while we slept). Each day when we got back (even with the blinds FULLY closed) it was darn warn. The last day was pretty nasty for the 2+ hours it took the AC to cool the place down.
All in, I would strongly recommend this place as a solid value during say Oct - May. June to Sept would be a “no go” for me again unless assured the AC was adjusted to keep the place from turning into a sauna while we are gone.
