Barbara’s place was so great for my husband and I and our 4 kids to visit! Her location is really great-so many yummy food choices, close to the L, and a block from a great beach! We visited DePaul and Loyola University with our senior daughter. We were able to wear our our 13 and 10 year old sons on the beach, walking around the area to get food and taking the train to the Cubs game. My oldest daughter loved the Starbucks at the end of the block. Barbara’s place is so clean, spacious and feels very safe. We highly recommend staying here!
