Travel tips
Since parking in central Chicago can be scarce and costly, guests are advised to use ride-sharing apps or public transportation, especially for trips downtown, as trains are often faster than driving during peak traffic. The rear dedicated parking spot and street parking permits are useful for those arriving by car. Plan to explore Pilsen's 18th Street murals and Chicago Arts District on foot, and check for Second Fridays gallery events or Dia de los Muertos activities at Harrison Park if visiting during those seasons.
