Cynthia was incredibly welcoming, greeting us with a warm hug and a tour of her beautiful home and her amazing art collection as soon as we arrived. Within minutes we were having a glass of wine and chatting. In the morning she had coffee and muffins waiting for us. She is as sweet as can be and goes out of her way to not only make you feel comfortable, but to make your stay memorable. The apartment is super easy to access by public transit, and University of Chicago is just a short walk. The apartment is spacious, the bed is comfortable. Can't recommend strongly enough.
