Holly and Mark were very welcoming, greeting me with a smile, communicating throughout, asking if I was in need of anything. They even offered to drop me at the nearby el station so I wouldn't burn excessive time while hurrying to meet a friend at a Cubs game. They also invited me to the block party that was happening during my visit. Their generosity extended beyond this, but you get the picture.

The apartment is spacious, quiet (separate entrance, FTW), and their home is in a wonderful neighborhood with great access. If I ever do AirBnB in Chicago again, Holly and Mark's place will be at the top of the list.
