Me and my family of 4 loved this place! At first i was a bit worried about the neighborhood but in all honesty it was not bad. It was peaceful in the area and everything was close to us!

It was a nice stay. Racing up and down the streets made it hard to sleep.

The apartment was great, and the host was very helpful. He always responded to my messages very quickly and made me feel very welcome. He even prepared plenty of drinks and snacks for me, which was a very thoughtful gesture. The train station was only a 10-minute walk away. However, for my work and activities in Chicago, the location was a bit far. You can reach downtown with a direct train in about 30-40minutes. The only thing I didn’t like was the King Drive train station. There were occasionally people there who appeared to be under the influence of drugs. I also would not recommend walking in the area alone at night, as I didn’t feel it was particularly safe. One suggestion for improvement would be the internet connection. I experienced difficulties making video calls over the apartment’s Wi-Fi, so I would recommend upgrading or improving the internet service. My Holafly mobile data also had poor reception in this area.

The place is very nice. The host had lots of goodies for us and for our dog. We felt like at home.
