My friend and I stayed at Meighan's place for four nights and it was a great experience! The space is exactly how it is portrayed on the listing and there were no surprises when we arrived. It is a unique and distinct apartment that is spacious, beautifully decorated and practical at the same time. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was stocked with cereal and coffee and the backyard was a private oasis in the bustling city! We loved the bulletin board in the kitchen that had TONS of useful information about Chicago -- a great, thoughtful touch. The apartment is just a short walk to the Blue Line, which we used the whole time we were in Chicago. As for location, it is not as close to DT as other neighbourhoods, but it is pretty hip area and should definitely be experienced by those who want to "see" Chicago. Bucktown is also tons of fun and exciting and only two stops away on the Blue Line. Meighan was approachable and knowledgeable about the area and the city and allowed us to check in early with our bags, which was a big relief ! We didn't see her very much, but did get the chance to talk to Dave a few times, who was awesome and so friendly and personable! To be honest, we weren't in the apartment a lot, because we explored the area and most of the city while we were there, but overall, it was a fantastic place to come home to at the end of a busy day and beats staying in a one bed hotel room DT any day! Thanks Meighan, Dave and Frances for welcoming us to your home -- we will be back and recommend this place to anyone visiting Chicago! -- Karly and Shelby from Canada
