I was greeted by Patricia and her 2 very friendly labradors after a 20 hour journey from Australia. I immediately felt at home as soon as i stepped into the apartment. Patricia was very friendly and a very useful source of information. Azzi and Ella were the most gentle dogs ever and it was so nice having them around.

The room was exactly what it looked like in the photo, if not better! I had the best nights sleep and even woke up a bit late one morning cause the bed was too comfy! The apartment itself is gorgeous and it was a great way of experiencing Chicago. Of course the breakfast in the morning was also very good.

I took a walk around the neighbourhood and walked to the University of Chicago to explore and it felt very safe and people were very friendly generally. It was only a short walk to the bus and train station and since i was attending a conference at McCormick centre, it was only 2 stops away by train so it is definitely a very convenient place to stay for anyone who will be going to McCormick. It isn't very far from the airport as well. Train to down town will take approximately 20-30mins.

Overall, I had a great experience and will recommend this place highly. I was very lucky to have found it on air bnb and it was definitely a gem! I hope to visit Chicago again one day and of course to visit Patricia, Azzi and Ella.
