Diane is a wonderful host and her apartment is ideal. It is spacious and hospitable and close to an excellent restaurant and corner store that offers gourmet fare. There are thoughtful touches in all aspects of the home's design--I felt welcome and at home. The location offers so much--the el is very close, but the neighborhood is quiet. The two main bedrooms are ample--the third, on the main floor--is smaller but still very comfortable and homey. If you want an urban space that will give you an opportunity to feel like you've actually had a vacation, I would not hesitate to recommend Diane's place.
