"Good value for the location. Pipes and pests need work, tho."

"The free out-of-system Metrorail transfer can save you a lot of time on weekdays but is much more convoluted on weekends."

"Get food somewhere on Granby, or failing that, the 7-Eleven on Olney and Boush. Or try the kebab shop next door. They walled up the cafe."

"Mi Hogar's chizdip is simple but very delicious."

"The hot dog place here has remarkably authentic Chicago street food. They even have Italian beef and poppy-seed buns!"

"Guests cost $7.50 each. Roof parking is $3/day, but Giant validates for two hours at the front desk."
