We enjoyed our two nights at Brittany and Dave’s place. It’s very clean (thanks!) and was very cozy for the two of us. Great kitchen for popcorn, breakfast or full meals. Comfortable living area with warm blankets, and comfy bedroom, nice bath. Brittany was always very prompt in communications and questions, and offered great advice on where to eat (Lula’s was amazing—get reservations!) and drink coffee.

Their place is an apt behind a house on the street—so it’s private but no view. If you have a car, parking is a bit of a hassle as it is everywhere in Chicago.

We just happened to stay the weekend of the big Chicago blizzard (January 31-February 2) and this created a couple of unique issues for us. (Our car got snowplowed in and we borrowed a shovel from a kind neighbor to unbury it! Heating problems due to extreme weather conditions. Walkways at apt with 16 inches of snow! Would our airplane depart as scheduled? No!)

But even with crazy blizzard, we enjoyed staying at Brittany and David’s!
