Overall, our stay was perfectly adequate.

I suppose this is technically a townhouse by all definitions, but it's not what you would think of as a 'Lincoln Park townhouse' - a detached limestone home with a front yard and front stoop. This townhouse was an attached three floor unit (one of four) with a basement backyard that is only accessible from the side of the building (not the front).

The host was communicative and answered all the questions we had. However, they would be well served with a written welcome packet of some sort so you didn't have to rely on texting the owner if you have questions (like how to get on the wifi).

The actual unit served its purpose but there were minor issues with hot water and heat. The basement is very cold and you will need to use the provided space heaters to keep it about 70 degrees in the winter. The kitchen has all the equipment you need for meals and the close proximity to Whole Foods is great.
