Amanda was such a welcoming host. She was very responsive and communicated well throughout the entire process. Her house is just lovely. It was in a wonderful part of Hyde Park between the university, the shops and cafes on 53rf Street, and the lakeside. The house decorations are delightful, the bathroom is super clean, and the room is comfortable with a great bed. I really wish I had more time to spend in the city because Amanda left a ton of maps and tourism guides in the bedroom. The patio looked so relaxing and peaceful, I just wish I had more time to spend there. If I get the chance to make it back to Chicago, I would certainly stay at Amanda's again and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone else staying in the area. Just a great house and a wonderful, friendly, accommodating host.
