I stayed a week at Anny’s guest house. She and her brother Mark were very considerate hosts. Anny sends detailed information making check-in easy. I took the Blue Line from O’Hare which has a stop near the house. The house has been renovated so it is modern, clean and attractively furnished. I appreciated the extras Anny provided such as organic coffee and breakfast snacks. Chicago can get hot in the summer (as it was most of the week I visited) and Anny’s house has very good air conditioning so it was a pleasure to return home after a day of sightseeing - the house was wonderfully cool! The neighborhood is an urban mix of shops, restaurants and apartment buildings. I found it quiet at night (I experienced no problems with noisy neighbors) and the neighborhood felt safe to walk through. The guest house itself seemed very quiet. There were others staying in the home, but I hardly saw or heard anyone. I had a great vacation and would totally recommend staying at Anny's guest house!
