Joe was very accommodating for our early check-in due to our group flying into Chicago. We had a bachelorette group, and everyone was able to sleep comfortably. The place was well stocked and for the most part, pretty clean. Upon checking in, the house was quite cold, but Joe was able to provide instructions to get the heat running. The neighborhood is family friendly and very hip/safe. Parking for our two rental cars was not an issue as street parking was readily available. I highly recommend Joe's place for large groups overall. Our stay was pleasant!
