Claire's space is a perfect local getaway. My younger brother and I stayed there for 9 days, and it was a welcoming home with the coolest hosts. The space is filled with local art, vintage and pop art; the original reason I chose Claire's home above any others. It is spacious, well designed, colourful and unique. It was also fun to binge Netflix while staying nice and cosy with all the extra lounging blankets and pillows, and we found ourselves sometimes staying in till noon because space was so well appointed. The neighbourhood is very pleasant and has a great collection of bars and restaurants catered to locals, perfect for people who want a true Chicago experience. Her location especially is right across fun restaurants, where you can indulge in some of the city's best fried chicken and mac and cheese. If you want to go upscale, Boeuf House is around the corner, one of the city's best-rated steak restaurants. In addition, Claire has a wealth of knowledge of the city's music and bar scene. Her space is most suited to urban explorers interested in local art and culture, and going deeper into the many small neighbourhoods that give Chicago it's 'weird'. We had a great time in Chicago because of the hospitality of Claire and Jamal.
