Eileen's home is amazing! We absolutely loved our stay and we didn't want to leave. :)
Eileen was an excellent host and certainly went the extra mile to make us feel at home. She clearly explained how everything works, showed me around, and was very generous with coffee, tea, bagels, milk, OJ etc.
The location can't be beat for a family. You're easy walking distance to the brown line train, which we used every day.
The Metra station (which takes you straight downtown) is directly across the street. With the windows closed we barely noticed the train announcements. (thx for the tip, Eileen!) :)
The house, garden, deck, and neighborhood are so relaxing. It's amazing to have this beautiful garden oasis in the city. I loved sitting on the deck, sipping coffee in the morning, watching the kids play in the yard ... Fabulous!
The beds are all very comfortable and there's plenty of room for the whole family. Thanks, Eileen, for a great vacation!
