Great location! 15-20 minute drive from anything downtown. 1 mile walk to the El and metra station, 1 exit to Chinatown! it is 4 floors so take that into consideration if you have individuals who have a hard time getting around. 1 side of stairs in the house are more 'normal' than the other. We had 13 people...and there was plenty of room. we spent every morning and evening on the porch off the kitchen enjoying each other's company! Chris was fantastic. called him once we got in and he answered any questions we had. There is a garage that will fit 2 sedan-like cars.... we had a 12 person van, so we had to park on the street. We never had to park more than 2 blocks away though, so no big deal there. Highly recommend this unit! We had a blast!
