First of all, Marty and Rob have an amazing home. The place is artistically decorated so just about everything was an awe to look at. Secondly, the house was spotless when we got there. Marty worked hard to clean the place. I'm usually quite particular about staying in places, moderate germophobe, but it just felt so clean and homely I could really focus on my stay and enjoy the city. Speaking of which, the house is stocked with guides and tips on what is available in the area and in town. When we weren't on our big dates, we could find something along Archer and walk there to shop or snack, thanks to a handy little map and guide. Third, the system they used, from the software to opening the front door, to the lights in the kitchen to indicate us being home or not, and a door hang to indicate whether we were sleeping in or out for the day, gave us a sense of autonomy and privacy, while still knowing we're sharing a space with them and other guests. Lastly, the amenities provided were great. Small details like mouthwash and mints in the restroom, water in our private fridge, were small touches that made our stay feel so thoughtful. I can't list everything else available, but ask Marty and Rob, and you'll be sure to hear from them super fast. Their presence was warm and inviting. Would definitely recommend to anyone planning on staying in Chicago. Money well spent!
