We had an absolutely wonderful trip to Chicago and staying at Matthew's place made it all the better! My business partner and I are in the restaurant business in L.A. and spent 2 nights touring Chicago's food scene. Matthew was a great host. He sent us a host of recommendations before we arrived, all of which turned out to be spot on. As for his penthouse, well, the views and decor don't get any better. It's just far enough from downtown to give you some perspective on the city and puts you closer to all the non-tourist restaurants and bars that we came to explore. I thought the location was perfect. Inside the penthouse is beautiful. There is a lot of intricate woodworking, most of which Matthew has done himself, and the vibe is a mix of vintage and modern. One cool detail worth mentioning... Matthew asks every guest about their music tastes when you book the place and there's a new vinyl record waiting to be put on the record player when you arrive. It's a nice touch. We'll definitely be back. Thanks Matthew!
