My husband and I were made to feel at home by Amanda, a very gracious and thoughtful hostess. Every amenity was afforded as advertised, and even more than expected.

The neighborhood is very secure with a large security presence owing to its proximity to the Obama family compound and the University of Chicago. It is in a heavily trafficked area of Hyde Park and has numerous good restaurants within minutes of leaving the apartment.

It is easily convenient to the Downtown heart of Chicago by both CTA and by Metra R.R.

We would return to Amanda's place in a New York minute!
