Staying at Angelica's place in Humboldt Park was really wonderful. She was incredibly accommodating as a host as well as giving plenty of options for us to go out and do our own thing. She even had a little basket of extra soap, shampoo, aspirin, etc. set aside for us on the desk in the room, a nice touch that shows how concerned with her guests feeling comfortable in her home. This was my first time in Chicago but after exploring a large part of the city over the course of three days I have to say this area is probably my favorite overall. It's a short walk to Wicker Park which has several bookstores, record stores and all sorts of cool little restaurants and shops. Overall, I have to say that the next time I'm in Chicago I'll check in with Angelica first before looking anywhere else.
