There is a queen bed in the main bedroom and a queen/full blow up mattress in the closet. The condo sleeps 2 comfortably. The condo is a high ceiling unit with exposed piping as it is a loft-style condo.

Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs is about 3 blocks away. Broadway street's wonderful shopping and dining is around the corner, as well as Halsted street's Boystown neighborhood. Downtown Chicago is a short 15-20 min (depending on time of day with traffic) bus, cab, or train ride away. The Belmont harbor is right next door across lake shore highway--which is home to tennis courts, a dog park, an enjoyable walking and bike path, bike rentals, and a stunning view of the lake and city!
