Both Amado and his place were great. He is extremely fast in his responses, and he gave us great recommendations around the East Pilsen neighborhood and around the rest of Chicago. His flat is a great value, considering the Chicago prices, the decorating is groovy, and it's very clean and tidy. You're a 2 min walk from the bus stop which will take you right into the city (10-15 min ride depending on traffic) and from there you can catch the L to any point around town. If you don't mind walking, then you're a 20 min walk from Chinatown and a 25-30 min walk to the L, which takes you anywhere you need to go. While small, the room is comfy and has a TV with Netflix, and Amado is very hospitable, encouraging you to use the flat as though it were your own. Our flight out of Chicago wasn't until hours past checkout, but Amado let us leave our luggage and hang out until we needed to leave. We were able to talk with him on that last day, and it was super nice getting to know him a bit, he even showed me his motorcycle and classic chevy pickup. He's good people.
