Derrick’s Place was just as pictured, very clean and comfortable. I felt safe in the building and the street seemed quiet. Walking distance to Walmart if you want to pick up groceries or coffee for the coffee maker he has. Other fast food places in walking distance as well! Derrick was always quick in his response to my messages and even made time to come and personally check me in! Good places to stay in Chicago are hard to come by at a good price so don’t delay in your search book with Derrick!
