Nice 1BR Spot, Unwind & Relax

Tidy and clean. Comfortable bed. The elevated train is a block away, and you can hear it rumble by. But that did not bother me.

Lovely space.

Great location. Very clean and had everything we needed. Host was very responsive. Our only complaint was how hard the mattress was. It was too firm for our comfort.

There are a couple things you should know about this apartment. First of all, it's up three flights of narrow stairs, so be willing to haul your luggage up. Secondly, when I took my luggage into the bedroom, I noticed a couple packages of earplugs on the nightstand. I wondered about it for about 5 minutes, until the elevated light train went by. The rail is just across the street, with constant trains, although the rate slows during the night. I'm not noise averse, even though it was loud at times, so it worked out OK. But, this may make a difference to you. The owners were quick to respond every time I communicated. Unfortunately, there was no water at the kitchen sink, and though I was assured that it would be fixed the next day, it was still not working after my week long stay. Because of my schedule, all of my meals were out, so getting water from the bathroom sink was inconvenient, not a disaster. This is an old apartment within a couple minutes walk to Lincoln Square, where all of my activities were. Because of the location, despite the stairs, the train track noise, and the water issue that will get repaired, I would probably stay here again if I have business in the same location. It was not a negative experience, but I wanted to give you more information than what you get with the listing.
