If you looking for basic accommodations in an BnB in Chicago, this rental is definitely both. Apartment 2R is cute on the surface. A kitchen, sm. appliances, two bedrooms with LOTS of beds, a decently sized living room, good fridge, safe sleepy neighborhood. SPECIAL NOTE: DO NOT PARK on Archer overnight . YOU WILL BE TOWED. It is quite a long trek to get to the impound lot and at least a 175 fine; it took seven hours off our stay in Chicago. lesson learned the hard wayThe more you look, you begin the experience the same quirks you’d have living at home. Bathroom sink hot/cold are reversed. ask landlord for the WiFi password, it's not posted. DO NOT lean on the wall near the small appliances - the lights go out. Don’t start a fire just for coffee. I dunnoMake sure to bring ALL your own basics for the bathroom: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soapIf you need special pillows, bring them. DO not do anything more than sleep on the bed, the frame might not surviveBring your own coffee pods & filters & sweeteners or creamer. There is a French press carafe so you don’t technically need a filter.There is a 59 MANDATORY property damage policy but for that you’d expect nothing to be broken or damaged upon arrival. (we sent our long list to Victor so might be much better than in March 2025)All in all. Decent for the location as we wanted to be near Chinatown
