Beautiful space, not the best for families with littles
It was a beautiful home! The location was fantastic. Parking was hard, but that’s typical with Chicago. We do have a 1.5 y/o and felt that the decor, setup with the owners living right below us, and the space overall was not toddler-friendly. I should’ve done more research on that but we prioritized the location near a venue for a wedding.
We were put in a bad situation with our original Vrbo booking and didn’t have a place to stay, so Kathleen went above and beyond with working to accommodate us on short notice. The apartment was very comfortable even though the bedrooms weren’t very spacious. The permit parking was difficult with a family with small kids because we had to work pretty hard to find a decent place to park. Overall, it was a great place to stay with a fantastic host! Would recommend!
