What can I say that hasn’t already been said about Nathan and his home — I echo the reviews in that his home was even more beautiful and welcoming than the pictures can possibly show.
Stunning, Zen, Feng Shui, Modern all come to mind as well. In addition to the digs, the neighborhood is a personal favorite for so many reasons.
Great Restaurants, Shopping, Theatre, Socializing, along with an genuine ease of Transportation in a very SAFE Neighborhood, it all played a part in my visit. There was no need to rent a car (even though parking was available) because getting around town was such a breeze. The RED LINE (elevated train) was just a short walk away and there were plenty of UBER options right outside the front door 24/7
Oh yeah... Wrigley Field, home of the 2016 World Series Champions ⚾️CHICAGO CUBS! It was just a short walk through the neighborhood (Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 for a repeat performance... maybe THIS year?) and I was at the friendly confines of the oldest ballpark in the country. You can almost feel the presence of so many Baseball Greats that have played ball there at Wrigley. If you happen to be outside during a game, the energy all around the park is indescribable, you will be captivated by the moment, guaranteed.
TIPS:
1) “Share” an UBER to/from O’Hare for just under $20. / each way
2) If you are planning a night out in “boys-town” you could probably skip the long lines at coat checks, because this quiet little oasis is just steps away from the most popular Chicago Nightclubs incl. Sidetrack - Roscoes - Hydrate - Scarlet
So you get to leave your coats back in the room.
3) Budget some time to get to know Nate. He is a wealth of information that is both current and useful, whether you’re from Chicago or visiting from Nebraska. There is a phrase where I live, that quite accurately describes Nathan’s hospitality — It is called the ALOHA SPIRIT, and somehow this Alaskan transporte has got it to share with you. 🤙🏼
