Not recommended for ease of downtown access without a car. Little far from major routes on foot alone. Not bad if you don't mind a little walking, but wouldn't stay again. This is the first time I'd tried a B&B, granted it may be a prefered experience for some. It's an older building, slightly run down and the toilet did not work properly. Set up like apartments with two stair wells on either end of flat. Felt somewhat vulnerable sleeping at night. Not many people around neighborhood or building. Seemed safe, but at times poorly lit and a little too quiet. Having said this, it was peaceful and deffinately out of the way of tourism. Neighborhood restaurant on the lower level, breakfast included with stay. Delicious and ample meals, but required an exact time for eating. Proved less flexible as I had no set schedule for sight seeing or evening excursions. Owners were good, lived in top flat.One friendlier than the other.

July 2012: Five of us stayed in the "Mayor's Suite" which was gorgeous and utterly magnificient. I felt like a queen with the luxury of enjoying a step back in time. The Innkeeper, Dave Samber made this the most enjoyable part of our trip to Chicago with his magnificient chef delights and his most interesting and injoyable historical recounts of the people and the building itself. I was there with my 84 yr old mother and step father and Dave and his Bed and Breakfast was the highlight of our entire trip. My step father is still talking about having breakfast with the POPE and candles! We will always remember this stay.
Very accommodating, the bests are the greatest. Can't say enough! Most enjoyable time spent in Chicago! Thanks Dave and Staff Members!

I spent about ten days here and was delighted with the experience. Dave was a most gracious host and fixed outstanding breakfasts each morning. The suite was perfect with a touch of old and new. It is located on a nice quite and safe street in the Bridgeport section of Chicago and Dave provided shuttle service as required. Downstairs is the Polo Cafe which has an excellent menu and outstanding food. I will be staying here on future trips to Chicago, without a doubt! Thanks!

I stayed in the Sox Suite with a couple friends on a weekend trip. We had three bedrooms, a dining area, kitchen and bathroom. The decor was unique but perfect us as baseball fans. Lots of White Sox decorations and memorabilia. Dave and Kevin were gracious hosts and went out of their way on several occasions. Great breakfast, very comfortable stay. It beat staying in a hotel by a long shot.
