I arranged for my mother in law and her friends to stay at Alex and Annie's for a week's vacation in Chicago. Although I didn't stay there myself I can confidently say it was wonderful. My mother in law raved about the apartment and told me that anytime she goes to Chicago again she wants to stay there :) Alex and Annie were also great about communicating with me and were very kind to put extra effort in so my mother in law could check in early. Oh, and it is a wonderful location! A block from the redline, a few blocks to the Clark bus, only a few miles from Lincoln Park & downtown, and a few blocks from a grocery store. Hands down, awesome place to stay.
