I wish I could have stayed here longer! Ruben and his family are amazing humans; they were so kind and welcoming, and Ruben made excellent suggestions for local (and very walkable!) places to grab some food. The space is very nice, too, and was exactly what I needed for my stay. It was clean and very comfortable; even though you'll be in a room (with your own private bathroom around the corner) in someone else's home, you will have as much privacy as needed. However, you really should get to know Ruben and his family--I really enjoyed talking to them all. Their company was especially nice as a solo traveler ❤️ I can't recommend this spot enough, and I definitely look forward to booking this place again the next time I'm in Chicago!
