Steffi's place is the best apartment I have stayed in: spacious, peaceful, simple, clean, and full of thoughtful gestures to make you feel at home. The bed is super comfortable, too! I felt like moving in after a single night. This is a short and beautiful walk away from Andersonville, surely one of Chicago's best neighborhoods. Walking distance to many grocery stores and restaurants, coffee shops, and antique stores. AND Women and Children First, an excellent bookshop. Steffi was very responsive without being overbearing, and gave great recs for vegan grub. A wonderful spot for visiting with friends if you want to be a part of a Chicagoan's Chicago (and you do, trust me), but also perfect for a little writing retreat--a HUGE wooden table, desk space, a little thinking nook. I would stay again in a heartbeat, and am a little devastated that I have to leave so soon.
