Cozy spot located in a walkable neighborhood full of culture and great food options. Easy location for access to bus routes and getting around the city. The AC kept the space nice and cool after a day of adventuring. Having a parking spot was awesome. The house itself had just about everything we needed, though there were some things that were still a work-in-progress in the space, but no big deal. We chose this location for the city vibes, and expected some level of noise, but the next door neighbors were really loud playing music and having people over until about 1am every night. The cops actually showed up once to tell them to turn it down. Just an FYI for those looking for a quieter experience. Overall the space worked great for what we needed and the host responded quickly to my question prior to arrival.

Just as advertised. Parking spot was a big plus, and the instructions on finding the spot were very helpful! Quiet street and close to transit.

Way too noisy of a neighborhood

The property manager was great. The neigborhood was way too noisy (backyard parties each weekend night when we were there) , weeds on backporch were overgrown and no live tv was a bit of a disappointment

If you're young and you're tired, these needs are for you

The unit had nice updated appliances, space for our group of 5 and a nice back patio. For relaxing. The el was a 15 min walk and 20 or so minutes to downtown. There was a broken window in the unit that was taped to hold the glass together. The unit had no cabinet pulls for the kitchen so opening the drawers was actually quite annoying and difficult. The beds. I know they were old as Iam because they looked it and were a box springst set. They looked like what one would find out back of an abandoned home in 1990. The pillows were about as old and were thin and lumpy. I would have taken a less updated kitchen for a better bed. (There was a partially empty jug of milk in the fridge. )Overall the unit could have been cleaned better. There was dirty hand marks on the bathroom door, trash in the rear patio which had a full full garbage. The neighbors on either were friendly and played their music in happy weekend enjoyment. Sadly, we left a large box of gushers which I missed on my drive home but hopefully the next guests enjoy them.If the host updated the beds fixed the window and added cabinet and drawer handles, Id recommend this place for Everyone.

Positives: Host communication was excellent and made sure instructions were easy to follow for arriving. Parking pad. Clean apartment and patio area. Spacious. Comfortable beds and pull out sofa. 8 minute walk to the bus line that goes directly into Chinatown and a 12 minute walk to a pink line station. Very large refrigerator/freezer for plenty of storage. Nice stacked washer/dryer for laundry.Negatives: incredibly difficult to open the kitchen cabinets and drawers- they need pulls or push latches. the greenery was overgrown getting from the car pad to the back patio- easily remedied with a quick pass of a weed-wacker, no extra sheets available for the sofa bed but there were extra blankets and pillows. I believe the closets are still being upgraded so there is really only space to hang clothing in one bedroom and, if you are someone who prefer to store clothes in a dresser, there isn't one. This isn't a drawback for me and is likely on me for not looking at the photos close enough to know they weren't there.Overall, we enjoyed our stay despite the minor inconveniences.
