The place is pretty rustic and has lots of vintage touches. We also loved the yard full of plants, trees, chickens, etc. It was fantastic. The train station is also just a couple of blocks away. This place is a great value.
Street parking was free and actually easy to find every time (and we even have a big truck). Seriously, parking sucks in Chicago but the specific area here was super easy, even when half the street was restricted for street sweeping. We parked once directly across the street and every other day of our week stay was parked right in front of the gate.
