Clean, close to everything, and convenient booking/access. Definitely would recommend to anyone visiting Chicago.
The street is quiet and across from the 606. Around the corner is Dark Matter, a liquor store, and a few pubs. About a block down is the blue line.... easy peasy access from O'Hare airport.

Super fun spot - definitely got my $8 worth in game play and it was fun to revisit some classics I’ve totally forgotten about.
