The Erika's place is amazing. It is a great spot to stay in Hyde Park. Walking distance to groceries stores, great restarants, the University of Chicago, bus stop, Metra, coffee houses and several stores (Target, Marshals, Whole Foods, Hyde Park produce, etc). Erika is a great host, she always responded quickly and is very kind. The studio is good, good bed, complete kitchen, heat works well, good bathroom (seems like a hotel, with shampoo, soap, and everything you need). I strongly recomend Erika's place.
