We spent a long weekend at Abia's place in Chicago. Check in/out was extremely easy, had no difficulties in that area. There is street parking in front and a garage to park your car in as well, very convenient. The neighborhood is quiet and allowed us to get some much needed sleep after touring the city. The kitchen was filled with most things to make meals with. Laundry on site. Everything was clean and felt brand new. We were about 20 to 30 minutes from some of the big tourist sites we wanted to visit so it was perfect for us. For someone who isn't used to city life (we're rural Minnesotans), this is perfect. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay in Chicago! Thanks Abia!
