My 16 year old daughter and her boyfriend wanted to hear a band in Chicago, so we drove up from Kansas and stayed at Matthew's place. It was the perfect neighborhood with several places for breakfast, coffee, lunch and dinner within a 5-10 minute walk. We also caught the train to downtown to the Art Institute and the river architecture tour. Matthew made parking easy with daily parking vouchers, and we found parking in front of the house without difficulty. The house was built in the 1880s but has been thoroughly modernized with all the conveniences you could want. It was well worth the price for the peace of mind and comfortable home base it provided. We would love to come back again.
