I enjoyed my stay at Justine's house. There is a big dresser and a closet with plenty of hangers. The desk is a good workspace and the beds are comfortable. The air conditioner works very well and so does the shower. I appreciated having full access to the kitchen and laundry machines. Everything is totally clean. Justine's mother is a very gracious and helpful hostess, and the cats are very friendly.
The location is convenient; the CTA Blue Line gets you downtown or to O'Hare Airport, and there are several good restaurants within a ten-minute walk. If you like a big breakfast but don't want to cook, you can get a good desayuno mexicano at the Taquería Moran or an American-style breakfast at the Cozy Corner Pancake House. Both are on the corner under the El station.
