Bucktown gives you a taste of Chicago outside the bustling downtown. The apartment is central to downtown (about 10 minute walk to the train and then it’s 20 minutes straight to Grant Park). I stayed here for the Chicago Marathon and Helen’s hospitality made sure my stress was as minimal as possible. I was so pleased with the apartment itself and the location. So many wonderful places to hang out for a bite or to catch some live music! Totally recommend to anyone wanting a more authentic Chicago experience.
