We had a great stay at Nicky’s place (especially loved the pillows!). She made check-in/out a breeze and was very easy to get in touch with if we needed her. The apartment is just a few short blocks away from the green line and there are plenty of bus stops, so it was really easy to get around. The area is a bit of a food desert, so plan accordingly. It’s definitely a lively neighborhood, and not going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but we felt perfectly fine walking home every night after midnight. There is a train right behind the house, but it was in no way loud or obnoxious. And where else do you get to feed your leftovers to goats?? They were definitely charmers.
