We are already talking about staying at Emily's place the next time we come to Chicago! Lovely, lovely apartment. Very gracious hostess. And very comfortable locale. Near a variety of interesting shops and restaurants. We came for the 49ers v. Bears game -- chose to Uber to the game -- our trip took about 15-19 minutes. So you can be downtown in a matter of minutes. 9 minutes to the Fulton District with all of its lovely restaurants. Wish it would have been a bit warmer out so we could have taken advantage of Emily's deck. Worth the price! (Just beware -- street parking is a bit hard to find so plan accordingly!)
