If you are looking for the best location to stay in Chicago, Old Town is it and Lynn’s apartment is right in the middle. Lovely neighbourhood with heaps of cafes, restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacy and laundries. I would recommend theTwin Anchors Tavern across the road for great BBQ and atmosphere and Abobo Grill has tasty Mexican. The “L” metro is a short walk and can be used to get into the city, to the airport and most places around Chicago. Also it is a good walking neighbourhood and you can walk along the lake into the city.
Lynn place is as described and on the ground floor which is a bonus. Easy access and good communication. A well supplied kitchen and comfy bed. We meet Lynn and her son Nick who help us out getting tickets for the baseball.
Highly recommend for a couple spending some time in Chicago.
