I can't recommend this unit highly enough. After many trips to Chicago, I wanted to stay in a neighborhood setting, but still be convenient to the Loop. This apartment was right on the Belmont line, with plentiful access to the Brown and Red lines. Super easy to zip around town. Also, I felt very safe, based on the security in place on property. If you are concerned with hearing the L trains, don't be. You could hear a light rumble, but nothing to keep this light sleeper awake. Great communication from the hosts. Wonderful coffee shop in the building.
