Overall, our experience was great. Proximity to the El can’t be beat. Took a minute to get inside the building and had difficulty getting back in later (buildings security box gave us an issue,) but we notified our host and were called back immediately with some quick instructions and no longer had an issue.
The studio was spotless and smelled great; the bed had some gentle scent that was really nice and it was super comfortable. Decor was true to photos. Towels, shampoo/soap, fridge, plates etc are available which was nice.
As stated in the advertisement, place is above a bar and 7-11. It was surprisingly louder than expected for a Thursday night but more mild Friday night lol. I’ll also say we had just come from a high rise downtown that was beyond quiet, so every noise stood out. There was a large tv with Netflix at Nala’s as well as a white noise box on the bedside table. With that background noise, it drowned out the bar noise.
All in all, for the price and <20 min train ride downtown, it’s a no brainer.
