Pete was a great host. Our arrival time was delayed a couple of times, but he graciously waited to check us in. The place was as shown in the pictures--very cozy and clean. It's located near a CTA pink line so very convenient for downtown sightseeing. There are nearby restaurants and convenience stores as well. The train noise (that Pete warned us about) did not bother us at all. The neighborhood was friendly and safe. We would stay there again if we find ourselves back in Chicago.
