The Blackstone Villa is really conveniently located for visiting ChicagoU, ca. a 12min walk through residential areas to "The Study" where my conference was held.
It has a nice kitchen which I didn't use because I always ate in one of the dinners in the area.
I always felt safe due to the large presence of parole cars at night.
Overall I can really recommend the Blackstone Villa, especially for students that visit the uni for some days/weeks.
