Joe's place is great for a larger group! it's much bigger than it looks from the outside and everyone had a bed to sleep in. It's great that there is free parking on his street, which isn't always the case in Chicago. The neighborhood is queit and very safe. There is coffee and food options within walking distance. Check in and Check out was super easy. Joe replied quickly to questions that came up during our stay and was accommodating to our check in/check out times.
