Nicky's place was fantastic! It is just as described. It is clean and conveniently located. There are restaurants and cafes all lined up and down the street, Target is a 3 minute walk away, and the blue line is an easy 5-6 minutes walk away (the blue line comes from O'Hare airport and goes to downtown, near Millennium Park, where you can connect to all the other lines if you wanted to). There's a trick to the hot water, but nothing to deterred anyone from staying there. I recommend Nicky's place to anyone visiting Chicago.
