Pros: All in all Lyn provided a very accommodating stay - we were having some car issues on the way into town and she made it clear that it wouldn't be an issue and was very quick to respond. Lyn also accommodated a late checkout, which was very appreciated and was generally very easy to communicate with. The location is great, Lyn was a good host, and the unit was nicely furnished. Netflix and Brita water filter were nice touches.
Cons: The unit itself did have some downsides - one of the couches had a decently large greasy-looking spot on it (the imagination runs wild), one of the sets of window pull-blinds was completely torn up and useless (which, honestly, should be replaced immediately) and the light-blocking curtains had to be held up with thumb tacks (installing a curtain rod is super cheap and easy). There was also no bath mat so condensation from the shower would quickly make the floor slippery. Also, be aware of the possibility of noisy neighbors all day long but hey it's Chicago so what would one expect? Finally, there was a smell to the unit which was immediately apparent upon entering - which I believe Lyn is aware of considering there were multiple cans of air-fresheners and candles in the unit.
