This location was one of a kind! It's a distinctive little bed and breakfast nestled amongst the hustle and bustle of Halsted. I appreciated the adventure that came along with this stay and the dynamic nightlife around us. But the exhausting check-in process took away from the magic of the whole experience.
We booked our stay last minute, so parking was a bit of a struggle, but the host did provide a parking pass even though it was late notice. She didn't have to do that. However, be forewarned... this host needs to square lots of things away before arrival, so there are better choices for a last-minute stay.
The check-in instructions were lengthy, complicated, and condescending (apparently, I wasn't the only one who had issues with them because there was quite the attitude about people, not understanding... all in writing along with the instructions).
Anyways... Upon arrival, I reluctantly contacted the host because I could not find the entrance to our room (move the trash cans under the porch and duck under to find the staircase leading to the room, basically.) Instead of clarifying where my room was, she reiterated to me to re-read the instructions several times. We had a very long exhausting day, and I almost just left. Finally, she told me how to get to the room.
The room was OKAY. There was no top sheet on the bed, and I felt like I needed shoes in the shower, but other than that, there was access to a stocked kitchen, clean towels, and coffee, which was great!
There are many restaurants and adult things to do around this location. It is VERY LGBTQ friendly, which was okay with us. But be aware that "expressing sexuality" is quite prevalent at this location, as was apparent by the sexualized pumpkins carved in the front courtyard overnight during our stay.
