My daughter and I stayed in Sarah's lovely apartment while visiting my son in Chicago, and enjoyed it thoroughly. It is a charming place - very homey and comfortable, but also cool. The neighborhood has lots to offer within walking distance and public transit is very convenient. There are at least two bus lines and a train station nearby. There are lots of restaurants of all kinds, as well. In general, it has a good neighborhood feel. Sarah has left lots of helpful information in the apartment and we found it quite useful. In addition, she kept us informed by text of some issues with the transit system, so we never felt like we were caught off guard. She was available, but not intrusive. We would love to stay with her again when we are back in Chicago.
