Eric and Beth's place really is a gem! The location is perfect--such a picturesque neighborhood and super safe. Its close enough to downtown we had no problem driving there any time of day (no traffic) but loved staying a little ways out of the city. They were great hosts--very friendly, the place was super clean, was stocked with water and even snacks, and had all the amenities you could want and more. Eric and Beth provided restaurant, grocery store recommendations, and were quick to reply to any messages. It was tough finding parking near the house at night time but it was doable. I would absolutely stay here again if I ever visit Chicago again!
