The neighborhood makes you feel like a local. Restaurants in walking distance. Nice kitchen if you want to cook. That said, getting to downtown Chicago is a trek— you’ll need a car or a lengthy public transportation trip. The noise from the upstairs neighbors is really bad as many have stated. Additionally the internet connection was bad during our stay. It kept dropping and there was nothing to restart to fix it. Something to be aware of if you are planning to work from the place.
