If you are looking for a place to stay in Chicago, this is the right one. The neighborhood is very pleasant, quiet and peaceful. Just a few blocks from the house you have a METRA station that will leave you at downtown in 29 minutes.

I was in Chicago for the marathon and stay at Janine's for 15 days and everything just gone perfect : everything clean and organized, all the facilities I could have, like a large TV, Jacuzzi, wi-fi, DVDs, books, etc.

I had to work for a few hours everyday and the place was perfect, with a very nice place to my notebook and everything I needed.

However, although everything works as a 5 star hotel, the place itself and the facilities, the most impressive experience I had was the hosters themselves : Janine and Thomas are just fantastic.

Always helpful, humorous and very friendly. I had all the information and tips about the city, places to visit , etc.

I was treat as a friend and not as a guest. They have also prepared a special taco, which was very good and in n=another day, they invited me to join them in a very good dinner with cod and apple pie, which was delicious.

I had also their support for the marathon, what was very nice. For instance, when I was going out to the race, at 5:30 a.m. I found out that they have left an huge supportive message for the race, blocking the door, so I could see their support . This is something that you can expect from your family and friends. This kind of behavior really makes the difference.

Janine and Thomas are more than hosters. They are very nice people, friendly, helpfull, easygoing and a delightfull companie. People that you'd like to have as friend.

So, if you're looking for a place in Chicago, don't think twice. Janine's house is the place !
