First of all, Sam's place is within walking distance from both Kedzie and Francisco stations of the Brown line of Chicago CTA. The convenient location made my travels to various areas of the city, such as Downtown and Korean restaurants in Niles, extremely easy. At the same time, you are free from the noise coming from the trains, as the place is about five minutes away by foot:) Also, the place features a high degree of cleanliness and privacy. I could tell how Sam paid attention to keeping the room clean and tidy. Last but not least, Sam is a great host who is very attentive to your needs and requests, and he responds to your message in a very prompt manner. I highly recommend staying at this place for either a short or a long stay in Chicago.
