Mary's place is absolutely beautiful. My wife and I were very surprised when walking into the place. The pictures online do not do it justice. Very clean and well decorated. The surrounding neighborhood is beyond beautiful. Being surrounded by historic townhouses overlapped by a tree canopy is like something out of a movie. Chicago has a great public bike share system now and Mary's place is only about a 3 minute walk to the nearest bike dock. This made exploring the city extremely easy and affordable. We look forward to the next time we come to Chicago and We definitely would stay with Mary again.
