Bev and her husband are the kind of hosts who really go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The apartment was just as pictured, but they went the extra mile and provided things like recommendations for restaurants, and had snacks, spices, and other cooking supplies available. After we checked in, they saw I had an electric car and even offered me an extension cord so I could plug it in and charge, which was so helpful on some cold November days. We'll definitely consider returning next time we're in Chicago as it's so rare to find a place in the city with private parking where you can plug in and with easy access to the L!
