We needed a sanctuary to unwind from a demanding weekend, and we had a beautiful home to relax in and easy access to explore Chicago. I was unaccustomed to a pedestrian lifestyle and it was a bit apprehensive but Jeannie reassured us and we were able to use the public trains with no major mishaps! It was nice to be able to walk around downtown and then retreat to Jeannies, and getting to the airport in the morning was so easy we got there an hour early without even trying.
