If you want a real taste of Chicago, I’d recommend this place. The location is nice and close to a lot of great restaurants, shops, and parks. On the downside, it’s by a train track and directly above a party bar. The host, thoughtfully, provided ear plugs for sleeping at night. Plenty of snacks, ice in the freezer, and clean bathroom. The shower temperature was not easy to control and had a mind of its own at times. It being pet friendly was great. Overall, we were pleased with our stay and would recommend this place. It was obvious that the host had thought through things and went above and beyond, but there’s only so much they can do with the location. Just be aware that it can be noisy.
