This space is a reconverted basement apartment with a separate entrance beneath a lovely house in a wonderful, residential, leafy green neighborhood. I especially liked the location as I was a mere blocks away from the interstate and could easily hop on and off to travel to the North Shore communities. I also found it very easy to drive throughout Northern Chicago, where most neighborhoods were minutes from Michelle's apartment. The basement apartment does contain three beds, technically enough for five people, but (other than a spacious kitchen) it lacks a lounge or living room space, so it could feel crowded for large parties who prefer to stay in rather than getting out into the city. Michelle was very gracious in providing free daily parking passes, which were required for on-street parking, and a variety of treats for weary travelers.
