Michael's place is absolutely amazing. He has his paintings and photographs up on the walls making the loft very picturesque and staying in it was a one-of-a-kind experience. The loft is very well located with most of downtown being within walkable distance. The room and area was very clean with every amenity being provided for from earplugs by the bedside to towels and toothbrushes in the bathroom. I had a little bit of confusion trying to find the door but Michael's son responded and helped me get settled in within minutes. It should be noted that you do have to climb up some stairs to make it to the loft but don't let that be the deal breaker! Michael's been in Chicago for a long time and has a lot of good recommendations for things to see and do!
