My husband & I enjoyed our stay at the Greenleaf very much. It had a nice homely feel while still offering some nice "hotel" like amenities i.e towels, a full self served breakfast.
Nice neighborhood & the Loyola beach is less than 3 blocks away. Perfect for grabbing some food and catching the sunset down by the beach, the water was just beautiful.
Highly recommend you check out The Greenleaf for your Chicago stay.
