Sara & Steven were very helpful with text messages prior to our stay to answer questions. They very graciously allowed us to share their kitchen to make breakfasts, which we appreciated very much.

The apartment was artsy and charming, and the basement bedroom where we stayed was cozy and cellar-like. It had a door which opened to the backyard for easy access to the wonderful hot tub (where we spent the last 30 minutes of each evening unwinding from the day). Towels, linens, bathrobes, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and hair dryer were all provided (and much appreciated).

The location was within walking distance to a bus line to go downtown (#66 Chicago), and our trip from Midway airport to Hot tub Heaven was via the orange line (the L), and the #49 (Western) bus. The neighborhood was very colorful and interesting, and we were able to find cafe's, bars, grocery, salsa dance classes (we took a couple), all within walking distance. Frankly, there were too many things to do, and one could get overwhelmed planning it all. Best to just take a long walk & see what pops up.

Overall, really enjoyed our stay and visit with Steven & Sara. They were so welcoming and helpful that it felt as if we were visiting friends or relatives! Definitely would recommend.
