Anne's place is located in a super central area of the Gold Coast in Chicago. It is located close to basically everything you need and the neighbourhood is gorgeous. Anne's communication, advice and prompt responses are second to none. The loft was great as far as amenities, space and size. The only downside (as others have previously noted) is the amount of light that comes in at night time. As it is next to a fire escape that is lit up at night (and there aren't black out blinds) there is a fair amount of light that comes in making it a little hard to sleep at times. Also the air con units were really loud, so on the hot summer days we were there it was quite noisy to have the units turned on. Apart from that, we had an excellent stay and Anne is a fantastic host!
