Coach House, Wicker Park turned out to be a great pick in lots of ways:
1. Location: in a historic neighbourhood with lots of greenery and plenty of small shops some of which are delightfully quirky. Tip: if you like bookstores, I recommend Myopic Books, 1564 N Milwaukee Ave, myopicbookstore.com; it's got good choice and also sells second hand books. There are no shortage of eating options and access to the El Blue Line railway and to buses is within a five minute walk. The Blue Line takes you directly without any changes to Union Amtrak Station and to O'Hare Airport.
2. The room/suite is large and even with our three bags my wife and I never felt cramped. It's tastefully done up with comfortable beds, couches and chairs. The Keurig machine and pods make great coffee. Plenty of tea options and an eclectic collections of books are available. The bathroom is spotlessly clean and roomy.
3. Barbara was always helpful. Her directions. We're clear and her check-in and check-out were easy. She had warned us in advance that Wifi would be a problem but offered free use of her home Wifi. She can give you helpful tips and info about Wicker Park and Chicago.
In short good location, good room and good host. Please don't hesitate about staying here.
