This was my first Airbnb stay when the hosts were there too so I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, I needn’t have worried as Gerard and Ernie respected my space while still being welcoming and friendly. They went above and beyond helping me with parking, timing my arrival and even asking about preferences for breakfast. The secure entry and exit were clearly explained. My room was pretty and airy and well equipped. I usually travel with an extension cord as there are NEVER enough outlets… except here! The private bath was lovely and filled with whatever you may have forgotten. Sitting out back near the koi pond and fountain was totally relaxing. All in all a wonderful experience. I’m happy to have met them and hope to return when I am back in Chicago again.
