Hosted 8 adults for a nearby wedding very comfortably. Plenty of sleeping spaces, well stocked kitchen, and two nice new bathrooms. Not really anywhere besides the kitchen to hang out - so just plan to go sightseeing and do things outside the house - plenty to do within walking distance. Lots of stairs...so good mobility required. THANKS!

Nice location and space
We enjoyed our stay in this apartment. The location is in a safe neighborhood and tucked back from any busy roads so it was nice and quiet. There were some things needing repairs /updates (unpainted drywall patch chipping in upstairs bedroom, stain on the blue bedroom's curtain and vent hanging off the wall in that room, kitchen smoke alarm removed). Hopefully these repairs will be completed before the next guests. Otherwise, the place was just as pictured and worked well for our family's trip for a nearby wedding.

Perfect location for a wedding at Salvage One.
The only thing at the house is the living space is on the 2nd and 3rd floor. I don’t recall reading that in the description. We had some older adults who had a bit of a hard time climbing the steps.

Short Chicago Vacay
The unit was nice, clean and comfortable. The location is good. I could see the area being sketchy but it was fine for our short stay. Communication with the owner when needed was quick to respond and gave good information. Would stay again, pricing was also very reasonable.

This place is lovely. There are some kinks to be worked out, but overall we had an enjoyable stay. The doors/locks don't seem the most secure though. Our host was very responsive.
If you plan to use the L, plan for a bit of a walk. The neighborhood is cute, which makes the walk enjoyable. There is a dog daycare next door. You can tell when dogs are being dropped off or picked up, but it is otherwise quiet. An added bonus is seeing cute pups!
