This was a great place to stay. The apartment was airy, full of light and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the shower pressure and heat were perfect. The kitchen has all needed appliances and utensils. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. There was even a place to store our luggage. Plus, close to the University and easy access (interstate and city streets) to all the Chicago spots.
Shane was a great host and answered our questions quickly. This is a great host and great place to stay.
There is a Starbucks and a few fast food places near the apartment. As we were in town for a family event, we didn't explore food options near but we saw these during our driving.
Just as FYI to future airbnb'ers and *none* of this is a negative on about our stay. Most of these are for your personal "comfort."
-There is a coffee maker but bring your own coffee (we're soda and tea drinkers).
-There are basic cooking items (oil, salt/pepper) but not much more.
PS: if you have deep dish pizza leftovers, 10 min in oven, a few (2-ish) in microwave and another 5-10 min in oven = great. 🙂
