It takes 5 locks to get in the first time, but the space is great and very comfortable. We arrived after dark which we don't recommend for the first visit! The stairs are a bit narrow for large luggage, but we are 74 and still managed to get our medium suitcases inside. The owners warn that the red door is tricky and we agree with them completely. There is a garage!!!! We have stayed at a variety of Airbnbs in Chicago, and not having to look for on street parking is a real treat.
