The space is charming and spacious with all the amenities. It has a lovely garden area that was a great oasis/escape from the hustle bustle of downtown after a long day of sightseeing. We loved that it's also a functioning art gallery and enjoyed appreciating the artwork while we were there. It's in an incredibly convenient location for the L which made all the downtown tourist-ing we wanted to do very accessible. From the front gate of the home you can see the Garfield Park Conservatory which was an absolute jewel to visit. We hadn't planned to go to the conservatory but I'm so glad we didn't sleep on it. Marlene was a communicative, helpful, and lovely host. I will definitely see if this space is available again the next time I visit Chicago.
