So many things to love about this place: 1) Judith and Viorel- amazing hosts, kind and interesting people. 2) Location- how can a place feel secluded and be quiet while being so close (one half block) to nightlife and great restaurants? The garden and back porch both offer a wonderful refuge. 3) Bikes- early morning ride to Audubon Park is a joy, and my daughter and I really enjoyed riding to Jackson Park (racing the streetcars along St. Charles). An absolute highlight. Summary- this is a special place, and we are already looking forward to returning!
