The hosts were very helpful in all of our questions for before and after we arrived to the garden suite! They provide everything you could need, especially if your trip is only a few days like ours. I always need coffee in the morning and Marta was kind enough to provide all coffee needs with a creamer of my choice in the fridge. My boyfriend and I had everything we needed to cook meals in the kitchen as well. You are able to hear footsteps and the hosts' dog running above the suite at times, however it did not bother me or my boyfriend at all! It was a very comfortable stay and in a safe neighborhood. It was a relaxing place to come back to after a long day in hectic downtown Chicago.
