The Chateau Royale Apartments

I'm disappointed...I got to view a nice apartment here, and after several hard months of searching to no avail, and living in awful Chicago buildings with poor management, I was excited to apply for a unit here. I want to give them props for having what looks like a well-kept older building with a reasonable price, and most utilities included. Management seems nice. However, I was turned away because their system flagged me for having a delinquent credit account that I cannot verify. All my... scores are above average, and my income is good. I've never been evicted before. I have nothing on my report that should indicate I don't qualify. They go by a points system that you must succeed in passing, or you'll be declined. I'm really discouraged, because I've searched for months and I feel like I did everything right. Everyone deserves a nice home, and I've spent the last year building up my credit and income only to be denied. I'm not applying for a job...it shouldn't be this hard. Read More

The apartments are very nice, a little bit older but well taken care of. They also have free wifi and basic cable. I have only spent a few months here and will be leaving in a month (due to a military move) but I would recommend this apartment to all of my friends. But please stay above the 1st floor someone down there cooks something that smells weird and overwhelms the whole floor.
