Staying at Greg's house in Chicago was a great experience. If you've read the reviews you've heard everyone talk about what a great host he is and they are spot on. Greg was so responsive with any questions we had and provided all kinds of local insight. A tremendously genuine, thoughtful and personable person willing to go out of his way to make sure your experience is good.
The house is a beauty! It's an older Victorian with a ton of character on one of the prettiest streets in Chicago. You are basically on campus and can walk to the Metra station in 90 seconds and get into the heart of the city in minutes. It's an older house with lots of character not a sterile cookie cutter new build. The beds are all very comfortable and the front porch is an awesome place to sit outside and enjoy the neighborhood. I would highly Recommend staying here. If you are going to McCormick place fora conference this might just be the easiest and most convenient place to stay.
