Mai's place is really pretty. The check-in instructions were very clear. Our flights got delayed and we reached Mai's place at midnight (supposed to reach at 9pm). She was awake the whole time, greeted us, showed us around.
Next morning Mai made breakfast for us, which was delish 👌. Would 100% recommend others to try it as well. She gave us some local tips on commuting and we saved significant amount of time. And then Misty, her dog, cutest and well behaved dog you'll ever see.
TLDR: Best place to stay in Chicago near to the downtown area.
