Nov 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 2 months in Blueground Chicago Lived and worked in Chicago for 2 months at a Blueground property. Overall place was great. It was comfortable and as described in the listing. Only complaint is the furniture is a bit cheap, which wouldn't matter except that a chair broke from regular use and I was charged for it. Overall though - would definitely recommend ##### Aaron S.
