The building was safe and secure. Lobby was very clean. We joked about it looking haunted. The room was very clean. The only concern we had was the mold growing on the walls in the bathroom. Being pregnant it was a little alarming. I can tell it’s just from the lack of ventilation when showering.

Great spot for Univ of Chicago visit

Check in process was super easy. Host checked on us during our stay to make sure we made it ok and didnt have any issues finding the apartment. Pics dont show it, but there is a little gally kitchen and dining area which is perfect for two people. We were able to walk to the grocery, the park, the college, and more. It was a nice little space and would stay here again.
