It is prefect for small family! My husband, myself, our 12.5 yr old son and 2.5 yr old daughter stayed here from Wed-Friday. You will get exactly what you see in the photos and descriptions. Very clean and inviting! If you are staying for a short period of time, this is a great place for you. It's also less than 5 miles away from downtown! We are coming from outside of Illinois so we have our minivan. Parking was a hassle for us. You park right on the street and it gets full easily. But other than that, I would still recommend Bel to host for you. I messaged her around 10:30 pm for a quick question, and she replied quickly and able to answered my question! She's awesome! Will definitely going back to Chicago and stay with Bel's place again :)
