I recently attended a trade show at McCormick Place and was thrilled when I found and booked this Hyde Park gem. The location was perfect, easy to get into and around the city by car, bus, train or bike. I'm sure even a horse drawn carriage would have been a fun way to navigate the charm of the Kenwoord/Hyde Park areas. Walking proximity to shops, restaurants, beach, U of C, Robie House, and parks was a cinch, especially with google and our hosts' guidance.

Patrica and Jamie were attentive and courteous and shared their knowledge of the city with great pride. Their home is charming and comfortable. The bedroom offered a comfortable bed with high thread count cotton bedding and wonderful pillows. The inviting chaise by a large window overlooking well attended landscaping with tall trees was a nice touch. My husband napped several times during the day while I was at my trade show. A good book, which could be found in their enormous collection, coupled with the relaxing hum of the AC window unit and a soft blanket put my husband to sleep quickly.

The bathroom was large and well lit; adequately stocked with lotion, shampoo, body wash, hand wash, luxurious hand, face and bath towels, bath mat, etc.

Unheard of in most AirBNB's was a daily delicious breakfast with rich, old world style bread (baked by Jamie) and Patricia's homemade, nutrient filled granola that sustained us throughout the day allowing us to splurge at some nicer restaurants including the Signature Place on the 95/96th floors of the Hancock Building.
Patricia shared her granola recipe with us and we are anxious to try it.

This is the perfect spot if you need 2 rooms during your stay. We were going to bring my mom and step day but they would not have been able to navigate the 3rd floor walk up with their arthritis and COPD.

An added treat were Ozzie and Ella, who greeted us regularly with a protective but loving bark. We are counting down the days to when we will return to Chicago to visit Patrica, Jamie and their 2 canine companions.

I am sure I have forgotten to mention something I loved about this place. I'll have to save some comments for my next trip/review.
