Excellent location. I was in Chicago on work, and could get nearly anywhere in the city or suburbs within 30-40 minutes, often fewer. The neighborhood is very nice and safe. Lincoln Square isn't far, and has lots of nice bars and restaurants. Though not fancy, the apartment is great value for the money. Good amenities -- cable, wifi, full kitchen -- and Jenny's family is very kind to leave baked treats, cereal, and juice. I would happily stay here again.
