5 STARS! Nicky welcomed us with a welcome sign, a bottle of wine, and farm fresh eggs! Check in (and out) was easy. We drove into Chicago and there was plenty of parking right out front. We really felt like the apartment was our second home. The neighborhood was definitely stereotypical "inner city" but the people were friendly and we saw many kids and families throughout our stay. Just be aware of your surroundings and be smart. We had no issue walking to the L which is a few blocks away. The apartment was clean, cozy, and quiet. We slept great and loved the rain shower! The second half of our stay in Chicago was an hour outside the city at a Hilton and it paled in comparison to our stay at the farm!
