Kam was a terrific host from our first communications, always responding promptly and checking in with us during our stay. My daughter and I shared his apartment with 3 other guests who we hardly saw. Due to Kam's detailed instructions and organization, guests are not impacted by each other in the shared spaces. You can stay in and cook full meals or head out to good restaurants within walking distance. His apartment is comfortable, warm, very clean, has plenty amenities and we felt very safe. His responses to our questions were always prompt. We followed some suggestions from his guidebook, which is extensive. We highly recommend Kam's place if you're a tourist or in Chicago for work.
