Erika and Danny were fantastic hosts. Couldn't have asked for better! They were very helpful, and provided great tips for local places to visit in the city. We loved talking to them whenever we could, it was like staying with friends. But if you also like having your own space, they are respectful and will leave you to do your own business (we very much liked their company and conversation though). There was easy access to transit from their home, and we got around the city just fine, often on one or two buses. They went out of their way with offering the best possible experience in Chicago and would definitely come back to visit them on our next trip.
