Sara‘s place was perfect and comfortable enough for 2 people. If you don’t mind a little walk,lots of places are within walking distance,like Lincoln Park Zoo and Conservatory,Chicago History Museum,a lot of restaurants and coffee shops right around the corner. Loved walking through the streets of this historic neighborhood.Only wished that the weather would’ve cooperated more,it rained for the most part of our stay.We had no problem getting into downtown Chicago on the L. We’ve visited Chicago before,but have always stayed in a Hotel. If you want to experience the city like a local,we would definitely recommended Sara’s apartment.
