This was my first Airbnb experience and let me say that Amanda has set the bar very, very high for future Airbnb journeys I make. Amanda is a very gentle, free-spirit, which plays into her hosting. She makes some excellent pancakes, has some great suggestions for travelling in Chicago. She's also just a great person to talk to and it was a privilege to be in her home.

The house itself of course is wonderful as well. I would highly recommend a stay with Amanda if you want a unique, fascinating experience.
