We were scheduled to stay at Cathy's for two nights but our flight was cancelled and we were only able to make it for one. She was great about keeping in touch with us and meeting us at the apartment when we finally got to Chicago.

It was clean and comfortable and in a great location for seeing the city, with train lines just down the block. You can hear the trains a bit at night, but it didn't prevent us from sleeping. The apartment has two bedrooms, one of which is down a few steps and open to the larger space. That one was the perfect place for my two kids to share a bed, while we took the more private bedroom.

We didn't have a need for the kitchen, but seemed more than adequate. And the neighbors upstairs were quiet. All in all a good stay.
