Kristin's place is a clean, pleasantly minimalist apartment in a busy, urban area. Conveniently located in a modest neighborhood, it's close to a major bus line and a short walk from Lake Michigan. Close at hand is a variety of ethnic restaurants--mainly Mexican but also Turkish, Ethiopian, and Chinese. Slightly farther away in the more upscale Andersonville neighborhood, more ethnic restaurants--Greek, Middle Eastern, Italian--as well as LGBTQI friendly bars & other businesses, like the Women and Children First bookstore and the Swedish American Museum. I enjoyed my stay and would happily return!
