We had a great stay at Stephen's place. We arrived late and were greeted with pizza and a bottle of wine. The apartment was comfortable and so stylish and we really appreciated the Aveda products, too. We were there on business so didn't have a whole lot of time to explore the area, but Lincoln Park is a couple of blocks away and a beautiful place to take a walk. There are also cafes and restaurants within a short walk. Stephen obviously put a lot of thought into the decor and it definitely added to our stay. We had planned to leave in the evening after finishing work and ended up staying because we liked the place so much. Stephen was friendly and everything went smoothly and easily. If you're driving, I'd recommend arranging to use the parking space. It's a small fee and most of the parking in the area is by permit only. Stephen's place was excellent -- if we could give it more than 5 stars we would!
