Really enjoyed our stay. . . basically a large, nicely decorated rec room with a separate, very large bedroom (lots of room for extra air mattresses, yoga, etc. etc. The highlights for us were the full kitchen, washer-dryer, gas fireplace, and large-screen tv. My son especially enjoyed the incline weight bench and free weights. Bonus points for having a 24" monitor and ethernet cables, I was actually able to get some work done at odd intervals. Chicago is a lot of fun at Christmas. . .worth mentioning too that Manal's house is in a really nice old residential neighborhood (near where former Illinois Governor Ron Blagoevich lives). Highly recommended.
