This is a very clean apartment with a beautiful view of the city. It was not even terribly expensive for what you get. There is plenty of room and it is not far from local events and attractions. I would definitely stay here again!
Room exceeded expectations and came with a stunning view with floor to ceiling windows with Lakefront view of Lake Michigan and a great view to the north of the city. Washer and dryer worked perfectly. I would absolutely stay there again when in Chicago!
Restaurants are nearby and the location is super central. I loved it

Cleanliness needs to be much better. Housekeeping has to come back and clean multiple areas and change the linen. Curtain partly torn off but maintenance couldn’t fix it then. Views were nice.
