The Wicker Park Inn is a very well run B & B in an old home where the owners live across the road. If you need anything you have to call them on your mobile which can be a little difficult if you are from overseas and don't have a USA phone or you phone is not working when you arrive at the doorstep. The rooms are very nice and clean, however there are no instruction regarding the breakfast. Things have been laid out by the time you get up but with no instructions as to what you can and cant have out of the fridge and if you can use the tea and coffee during the day. I would recommend this Inn for its quirky location but don't expect to be reassured as to your comfort.

I stayed at the Wicker Park Inn in September, 2011. I can definitely stay again. It is a cozy place run by very kind people. My room was excellent, location is awesome, wicker park has become a place with a lot of restaurants and shops. Near to public transportation.
No complaints at all.
Thanks for everything!

stayed there for one night in oct 2010. streetside parking was slightly tough to find but after a couple of circles i managed to secure a spot right underneath my room window. the drive from airport was very easy, just a couple of turns after getting off the freeway. the room was nice, wifi was free, hot water was hot. the street was pretty quiet, got good sleep. liked the bars near milwaukee ave. would go again any time.

When we travel to Chicago we usually stay downtown and try a different hotel each time. This trip we stayed out of the downtown area in Wicker Park at the Wicker Park Inn. This was a very nice change from the larger hotels downtown. There were many positive points about the Inn (WPI). First, the location is awesome! Wicker Park is so much fun to walk around and shop, try new restaurants, etc. The Inn is on a lovely, tree lined residential street., very quiet. Second, we have family in the area so we usually drive so parking downtown is such an expense and a hassle. Our stay at the WPI included parking on the street right in front of the inn. Check-in was very easy. Our room was nice, nothing too fancy, but comfortable. The area where breakfast is served was nice also. Breakfast was OK, nothing to brag about though. They had a lovely selection of teas but you could not make or get coffee except at breakfast. I would prefer a small coffee maker in the room or one in the breakfast area. The floor was squeaky. as was our bed, but not a big deal.
All in all we really liked the WPI and will stay there again. Even with a few flaws it is more convenient and personable than some of the hotels downtown.
