Pros:

It was a very clean apartment. The kitchen was very well stocked with supplies. The staff was very polite. I had an issue and contacted them via message. The person that helped me was very understanding and super nice. The rooms are well stocked good quality blankets towels etc. The neighborhood was fairly good. The people I saw and crossed paths with were always polite. The jewel osco store was only about a ten minute walk, but there's also a bus stop right around the corner and it goes straight to the store. They have a good size living room and it was a cozy place to read and relax. There's a washer and dryer and they are free to use. I was just really impressed on how the staff were all excellent and very nice. Over all this place was a very comfortable place to stay

Cons:

That there's no TV's at all. Other than that there's nothing that I didn't like.

Reasonably priced considering how high Chicago is. Good value...be prepared for a few sleepless nights if you are a ligh
Pros:

Cannot beat the price for the area. Very secured location. Was a very short distance from the downtown venue I was working.

Cons:

The microwave did not work. The rooms did not have TVs. The walls were paper thin. If you stay on 2 you will hear college girls above you laughing until 4am.

Cons:

Der Airconditioner war super laut. Wenn gekocht wurde, wurde der Geruch über den Airconditioner verteilt.
Das Personal hat sich nicht um meine Anliegen gekümmert, obwohl dies zugesagt wurde.
Es gab kein Toilettenpapier, das Zimmer mit Balkon habe ich nicht wie zugesagt bekommen.

Unfortunately not a comfortable experience
Cons:

Unfortunately, I did not have a pleasant experience at this place. On the day I arrived, there weren’t even basic necessities like toilet paper in the bathroom until the following day. The first night was extremely noisy — my room was next to the washer and dryer, and the sound of people using the machines didn’t stop until 3 a.m. This was especially unfortunate since I was visiting the city for work, and it left me with very little energy the next day. One of the towels had a strange smell, and the final surprise came in the morning when, while carefully checking that I hadn’t forgotten anything, I noticed a fake nail lying next to the bed — a clear sign that the room had not been properly cleaned. I ended up leaving earlier than planned because I did not feel comfortable.

It was good stay for this pricing
Pros:

The location and the pricing for this location were amazing. I went to the University of Chicago for a conference, and it was a pretty short walk from the campus to the place. Also, it is really easy to reach this place if you fly through Midway Airport.

Cons:

The main issue I had was with the cleanliness of the towels they provided. I would recommend that people carry their own towels with them if they plan to stay here. Also, make sure to get your hair dryers, shampoos, and all those kinds of things because they were not provided.

It worked but ultimately cost more due to lack of amenities we had to go buy.
Pros:

Close enough to UChicago to walk.

Cons:

There were no towels provided in the room, no toilet paper, no soap, and no tv. We tried calling but no one answered the call at the number provided in the rental agreement. Room a/c set to 72° and not allowed to be changed. Had to open windows to cool the room off. Not sure what you would do in hot time of year. Parking was only on the street if available, not reserved for people who rent a room.
