We loved staying here and it is perfect for a family not needing to cook; although there is a microwave, crockpot, toaster, etc. Great neighborhood and cute patio. A little bit of a commute into the loop but we loved getting to explore the north side of Chicago with all it has to offer. Also, the train (Brown line) couldn’t be closer! Kathleen was a fabulous host, made it feel like staying with friends/family. She is quick to respond and has lots of information. HIGHLY recommend.
