If this is your first trip up Chicago and you want a central location to see the Field Museum, the Shedd Aquarium, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Bean, this is THE PLACE for you. Close walk to everything. The only place we took an Uber to as the museum of science and technology which we highly recommend. An added bonus was the rooftop deck from which you can get a clear shot of the Bean. Great communication from host. Highly recommend.
