Insight Guides
"Tucked into a residential neighborhood between Lincoln Park and Wrigley Field, this option is modest, rather than majestic, but quite comfortable. ."
Gayot
"Although it was built in the style of an English manor, this boutique hotel doesn't limit guests to afternoon tea and crumpets."
Zagat
