My husband and I loved our time at Karen's place. We've stayed at many airbnbs and Karen's was the most exotic one by far because it felt like a step back into the 1920's! We kept thinking if only these walls could talk! The views from the living room windows are spectacular, I spent a lot of time sitting in one of the comfy chairs right by the open window enjoying it all. Karen was there to warmly greet us (with yummy food for our first breakfast too), she is such a wonderful person! The #26 express bus into downtown Chicago worked great (but it doesn't run on the weekends or late into the night) but the #6 express bus worked fine too, just a longer ride. We would definitely recommend Karen's place whole heartedly! (also for our early flight out of Midway we took the #26 bus into the city and onto the orange train right to Midway, it took less than a hour)
