I want to make this ABUNDANTLY CLEAR...Deanna has explained the shower situation very well. I went into this very aware that there is no stand up shower. The apartment is lovely, very clean and has a comfortable bed, plenty of hot water and I was able to get street parking right in front of the door. It is a great value in Short North. However, even though I thought that I could live with the shower situation, I found that it was difficult for me to bathe and wash my hair. Enough that I did a quick wash up the second morning in the sink. Just make sure that you are agile and small enough to crawl into the tub and wash your hair sitting down. Unfortunately, I am neither and it was a bigger challenge than I thought. Again NOT Deanna's fault. Even though everything else was perfect, I'll likely pay more money next time for a stand up shower.
