If you stay in Chicago don't look any further. Colleen is a wonderful welcoming host and person, her home is awesome, cat and dog are so lovely and the neighborhood (10 minute walk) offers plenty of bars and restaurants. Blue line is a 7 minute walk only and connects you with even more entertainment and with downtown. Chatting with Colleen is always a great pleasure. and will surely enhance your Chicago trip. We just wished we could have stayed longer.
