Eileen's hospitality was beyond what we expected from a host. Her place is a very short walk to the subway in a beautiful and safe neighborhood. A coffee shop is located right before the subway which was super convenient. The subway into downtown takes about 20 minutes but don't let that steer you away. We really enjoyed being greeted by her Frenchie every evening we came home. It made us feel at home being so far away. The bedroom was big and open. The bathroom had a great tub (which we did not get to use but wish we did!) The king size bed and pillows made sleeping every night after walking miles so comfy. Eileen checked up on us everyday to see if we she could do anything for us (through the app I must add.) Even though we stayed in her family's home we never felt like we were intruding. I will ALWAYS suggest to anyone visiting Chicago to stay here. We are young travelers trying to see the world and with our budget we stayed in a beautiful place, with kind people, in an amazing city. Thank you Eileen!
