Pedro and Che’s house was the perfect choice for our family when we came to Chicago to celebrate our daughter’s birthday weekend. It was super clean and we loved the decor. It looked even better and bigger than it did in the pictures!
The spacious living and dining rooms allowed us to hang out with our group of five. With four bedrooms and an extra twin bed in an area off the master bedroom, we had more beds than we needed. (A family member had to cancel last minute.) Both bathrooms were stocked with lots of clean towels and all the toiletries you might need and a hair dryer, too. There was even an extra toothbrush and toothpaste…just in case!
The kitchen was fully appointed! The ice maker wasn’t working, but there were ice cube trays and a big bag of ice in the freezer. There was even a nice basket of snacks and bottled water for us, not to mention coffee for the coffeemaker! Nice big refrigerator, too! You could definitely cook and serve an entire meal without any problem.
The bright and cheery sunroom was complete with a desk, small table and chairs. The back patio with table and chair set was a great place to relax with the group in the afternoon or even in the evening—with strings of light draped overhead.
There was lots of free street parking, so we didn’t even end up parking in the garage.
Communication with Pedro was excellent. He responded immediately, even when I messaged with questions before booking. We got a very complete message from Pedro before our visit, outlining specifics of check-in and helpful house info. This same info was printed and left for us in the house. Pedro responded very quickly when we had questions during our stay. (They live next door, so my husband actually ran into him outside and was able meet him. Super nice and friendly and accommodating.)
We were able to enjoy a little more time with our group on Sunday since their booking schedule enabled them to be more flexible with our checkout time. And there was no list of things we had to do before we left. Pedro said they would handle everything.
The location in Humboldt Park was great for us and it was close to Logan Square. We used all forms of transportation over the weekend…our van, our feet, an Uber, the bus and the L. We will definitely check out Pedro and Che’s place whenever planning a group visit to Chicago.
