If you are looking for a quiet place out of downtown to unwind and relax, Jan's place will be perfect for you. This is a nice-sized space for up to 4 people with plenty of room to breathe so you won't be tripping over each other.
A couple things to note: this is a basement, so you will be carrying your things up and down stairs. Also, you do go through a shared entryway/porch to get to the basement. It worked out really well for us because Jan is great, but some people might get a little picky about that fact. Lastly, you'll be about 15 miles from downtown (if that's what you are visiting Chicago for); however, there is easy access to public transportation if you wish to go that route. We actually drove into downtown, used SpotHero to find parking spots, and had absolutely no issues.
