We were very pleased with the coachhouse. It has obviously been brought to an excellent standard quite recently. Bathroom and bedroom well equipped, everything clean and inviting. The kitchen was definitely above standard with all the appliances and well suited for cooking evening meals. What we missed was only a larger pot to cook pasta, this should be added. Although the house looks beautiful from the exterior with nice climbing ivy, the surroundings are so-so, it's a back alley for a residents' street which, on the other hand, makes it quiet at night. But we definitely felt safe when returning from Ashford Station (Green Line) in the evenings (ten minutes' walk away). We think this house is an excellent starting base for exploring downtown Chicago.
