The stay is in a good location if you're driving -not as much if you need to jump on the El. Plenty of space to host family, but could use improvements in stocking the kitchen with better dishes. It worked out fine for my family - but wouldn't stay longer than a few nights until improvements are made. Also the indoor stairs lack a rail/banister so for my father who has knee trouble it was difficult. Good living/dining kitchen space and beds were cozy/plenty of bathrooms!
