Jordan is a terrific host, and this is an outstanding place in a great neighborhood. We spent three nights here, and enjoyed every one. Staying at such a nice place, it was tempting to stay day to day.
If you're new to Chicago, don't let the distance from an L stop scare you. Wicker Park is only a half-hour walk away, and in good weather, it's very pleasant. There's also a few bus lines to get you there or downtown with ease. Besides that, the neighborhood is great, so we were never anxious to get far away and find somewhere else to go. Restaurants, bars, and a couple of grocery stores are all very easy to get to.
