We had a wonderful four night stay at Bev's place. It was obvious that the second floor condo had been nicely upgraded and was well appointed. Bev is a very responsive host who goes out of her way to communicate and follow up with any guest issues. The place is very clean and well kept up. We cooked a pasta dinner one night and the kitchen had everything we needed. The snacks and bottle of wine she provided were much appreciated. The place was also very quiet considering it was on a fairly busy street. Stax Cafe (2 blocks away) was great for breakfast and Jewel Osco (2 blocks away) was easily accessible for groceries. Best of all the incomparable Richard's Bar was a quick 5 minute walk away. To sum up, Bev's place is a great home base for your trip to Chicago.
