Safe, Quiet street. Perfect Location.

Review submitted: March 20, 2013   Date of arrival: February 20, 2013

The four of us enjoyed our stay in the beautiful brownstone property on Cedar. The location was perfect for walking everywhere from Second City to the Art Institute. We were able to comfortably visit together but had privacy at the same time. The restaurants and nightclubs were right around the corner and we enjoyed several of them. Cedar is a very quiet residential street and sleeping was easy and we felt safe and right at home.

Not so First Class Chicago

Review submitted: March 17, 2013   Date of arrival: November 23, 2012

Stayed in multiple units in this brownstone during November/December. Accommodations were nice and the units were nicely furnished. Some things were, in my opinion, not up to par. It was really drafty and cold, especially in the bedrooms. It was much warmer in the living areas, which is where my little ones had to end up sleeping because it was too cold in the bedroom.
Service: In one of the units, the TV was not working; called the service number provided in the manual (where they said that they would get back "right away"); they did not call back for days - the day we were to check out of that unit! Needless to say, service was slow, so if you have a problem, you may have trouble getting it fixed.
Appliances: The washing machine is not safe to use - we unfortunately used it and had all the clothes ruined! They all have small holes in them - I assume from something snagging in the washer or dryer. One of the other units had a hole in the microwave, so we did not feel like it was safe to use. They really need to check/update their appliances.
Kitchen:The kitchen was not well stocked with cooking utensils and pots, although there we plenty of cups and a good number of plates; this is probably fine for the majority of people who go to stay there and go out to eat anyway, but not for us.
Cleanliness: good to fair. I don't like to see dust balls in the corner and crumbs and dust on the counters, so I was not too happy with the cleaning that had been done prior to our arrival. Otherwise the main traffic areas were suitable.
For most people staying there, these accommodations are probably fine, but it was not the best for us.

Recommended for: girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway
