Visited during the end of December. The place had great heating and kept me warm. The TV has basic cable for the area if you want to watch.
it is a quick drive up the freeway to get to downtown, the aquarium, Navy Pier, and anything else.
Though the place looks like it is in a rough neighborhood, I had no issues. For some, the place may look dated. However, if you are exploring the city, the house if great. Has wonderful heating, warm shower, and a functional kitchen.
Patrick is also very welcoming and is great for conversation.
