Our family utilized Lucien's location as our base for a week of exploring the Chicago area. There is plenty of parking near the location and it was very easy to get downtown using the train. There are stores and other amenities within walking distance. We even walked over to catch the White Sox game on our first day. The space was great for our needs. There were no issues with cleanliness, odors or safety which we felt impacted our stay in anyway. We were comfortable and felt at home. Despite a busy weekend for him, Lucien was great with communication. When we are back visiting the area, this will be high on our list to stay again.
