This is the first time we have not stayed downtown when visiting Chicago. We were a little concerned staying this far out. Boy, that was not a concern at all. It was easy to get to and from the airport, on the train. The only walking we had to was from the bus stop, at the corner, up a street lined with absolutely beautiful homes. This is a beautiful neighborhood. It is so quiet, yet so close to everything. Short walk to the red or brown trains. There are so many restaurants, most with 4+ stars within 1/2 mile. Only about 1 mile walk to Wrigley Field! Behind the house is a peaceful outdoor area with a garden and a fountain. The room was great and the tile floor in the bathroom is heated. That was an added extra. Tim checked with us many times during our stay. We had several good conversations with him. He was wonderful and very helpful with any questions that we had. We are already talking about going back and staying there again. If you're looking to stay at at a place and feel like a resident then this is the place for you.
