Carol's place was perfect for our girls weekend. Some of us flew in, some of us drove so the access to the blue line and the easy street parking made this place perfect. We stayed on a very chilly Chicago weekend -- temps in the teens. The place was quick to cool down -- it's a ground floor, so to be expected, but it was surprisingly just as quick to heat up. Noise level from above was nil. And the place was just as expected. Carol left out an air mattress for our third party and there was a perfect spot to set it up right next to the living area, yet still out of the way of the common space. There is a pull out too in the couch, but we opted for the blowup. Kitchen was well stocked; we appreciated the pitcher of filtered water waiting in the fridge for us and extra coffee k-cups. Thanks for being so communicative and quick to respond to all our questions, Carol!
