We loved staying at Carin's place - it was warm, cosy, charming and had everything we could possibly have needed. There was even a fireplace and a little Christmas tree for us! Carin was friendly and a wonderful host, we felt very welcome. The neighbourhood was safe, with many restaurants and amenities, and close to transport to Downtown Chicago. We were also able to walk to Lincoln Park Zoo. It really made our Chicago trip extra fun, knowing each night that we had a lovely (and warm) place to come home to.
