Greg's place was awesome. The house has character (not sure how else to explain this, you just have to see it for yourself) and Greg was an excellent host. It was clear that Greg wanted our stay to be comfortable and he was very accommodating. The house is practically on the University of Chicago campus, is a short walk to cafes, restaurants, grocery stores and the Chicago Metra train - which gives you easy access to downtown without a car. I loved running along Lake Michigan, very beautiful and also a short distance from Greg's place.

I certainly recommend this place to anyone coming to Chicago. A couple of things some may need to be aware of:
1) The tub is a bit higher than a normal tub, so elderly or handicapped people may have difficulty getting in and out.
2) Greg has a Rooster named Froyd O' Roy that likes to announce morning - it didn't really bother me but light sleepers should sleep in the room closest to the front of the house.
