Erik and his home are absolutely wonderful. All of the reviews you read are accurate - no false information, just good stuff. :) this is a perfect location if you are flying out of Midway, or don't mind taking the train into downtown Chicago. My boyfriend and I spent three great nights at Erik's humble room and felt very safe and welcomed. His mom and grandmother were very friendly and encouraged us to ask them for any inquiries we may have had - and their dogs are adorable!
We would definitely recommend this room for anyone who is visiting Chicago. Thank you for the exceptional hospitality, Erik! All the best.
