What an experience. To tell you the truth, it took some serious will power in order to de-robe (those robes!), roll out of bed (those sheets!), and head into the city each morning. Wes and Jeni’s description of their loft as a “comfortable and refined sanctuary for guests” could not be more spot-on. I could probably write poems about how at peace the space made me feel. But robes and sheets and refuge-giving aside, the hospitality was outstanding, the amenities were phenomenal (seriously, those robes!), and the location is brilliant. Only a few minutes walk to and from the train (Red Line), but nestled in a cosy, quiet, tree-lined street. It’s how I’ll always do Chicago, and it’s how you should, too. The only downside — you may not want to leave. Kidding. Kind of.
