I had a great time at Michael's place. It is conveniently situated within downtown Chicago within abundant food options and walking distance to different train lines/bus routes. It was in a safe neighbourhood. I stayed in the open loft and it was such a comfortable stay. The bed was to die for and Michael has kindly installed curtains you can draw. Why would you though, as you will be missing seeing the pretty first light. Delightful is what I will describe the rooftop patio. If you stayed at the right months, Michael will be more than happy to share with you his home-grown harvests. His flexibility to store luggage had been greatly appreciated by his guests. Michael has a great balance between giving you the privacy you need versus sharing his company wholeheartedly. I enjoyed the exchanges with Michael, learning about his life story, his passion and his dreams. I will be looking forward to staying here again during my next visit. Thank you for the memorable stay!
