John's house in Bucktown, Chicago was in an exceptionally located area. We were walking distance to the blue line metro which served as a perfect artery into and out of the city. It took 20 minutes on the train to get to the heart of downtown, and 5 minutes to Logan square. John was exceptionally accommodating with his place. He provided us with fresh coffee, some welcome donuts, and in one of the rooms a beautiful orchid. The place was clean and the backyard!, the backyard was such a great touch. Tikki Torches filled with citronella, and a grill with a full propane tank all added to the great stay. It was perfect for a group of 4-5 on a quick jaunt through Chi-Town, that wanted a chill spot to call home-plate while touring around. I would absolutely stay again.
