Kelly’s place is located perfectly on the north side of Chicago — just a short walk to Wrigley Field, Boystown, Lakeview bars and restaurants, and right next to the Belmont red/brown/purple L station that’ll take you downtown in 20 minutes. It’s also tucked away, so it never felt sketchy or too loud on the nearby streets.
One note to make is this place is huge! I don’t think the pictures do it justice. Plenty of windows, plants, and decor made the experience feel like we were staying with family. It was just me and my partner, but we easily could’ve fit another 1-2 guests.
Oh and the best part: open bar! We bought our own whiskey from the liquor store nearby, but had so much fun making cocktails. The only con is the amount of stairs and the no guest/pet policy (even though there was dog food). I have a feeling with positive communication, Kelly will be a friendly and flexible host to anyone.
