thoughtfully appointed

This neighborhood is wonderful, and to have a parking spot there is so helpful. But what's most impressive is the amount of detail put into the apartment itself: it has everything a couple could need. Very nice hosts, also.

Fantastic Location and Comfortable, Clean Space

We had a fantastic stay at this apartment! The location was perfect—just a short walk to great restaurants and Lincoln Park Zoo, which made exploring the city so convenient. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen had all the essentials, and the overall setup made us feel right at home. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-situated spot in the city.
