The apartment is older than it appears in pictures but is quite clean as other reviews have stated. It is a roomy for a Chicago one-bedroom and I found it comfortable for my stay. I really appreciated the detailed video for lockbox, key, and apartment entry, as there were quite a few steps. I agree with one review that indicated bedroom is too bright. Room darking curtains can be bought very inexpensively and would certainly provide a better night of sleep. Sheets and bath towels could also use an upgrade. Overall, the apartment is very private and quiet and I will probably stay again.
