This was our second stay, and we chose this condo intentionally for its comfort, convenience and garage parking. Even during these days of carry-out rather than dine-in, the vast number of Perian, Latin and Asian restaurants in the area are delightful, and there are at least four grocery stores within easy walking distance. Within a couple of blocks is the beginning of a wonderful trail system through parks along the North Branch of the Chicago River -- you can almost forget for an hour or so that you're in the heart of the city.
For the safety conscious, while the neighborhood feels fine day or evening, please note that when you are snug in the condo there are three separate locked doors between you and the outside world. Very snug indeed.
