Christine was really nice and a good host for the stay. It's nice that there is the red line really close by and convenient, though it is farther from Michigan Ave and other places of interest. It's a good place to stay if you want to be in a quieter area with some nearby good food at a good price and time to explore/travel the area. If you want to be close to the Loop, Mich. Ave, etc, probably not as good of a choice.
