We absolutely LOVED staying at Jean's home. I traveled with 6 people in our group and we had plenty of room at the house. There were many options of which type of room/bedding to choose from and the pull-out couch was much larger than we expected. The kitchen had all the essentials and we were able to cook family meals our entire trip and there were a lot of plates and bowls and silverware to go through. The house was very cozy but still had updated appliances which was really great. The dining room and common areas were roomy so we could gather without feeling cramped. Both bathrooms were fully stocked as well and good sizes for a big party, and the sun room was wonderful to start the day and have coffee in. The area was very quiet but there were plenty of stores and shops within walking distance. There's a Target just 5 minutes away for groceries and we were still able to find street parking for the car we rented. Even taking rideshares to downtown wasn't very costly. Matt and Jean were very responsive throughout our trip and we had no issues at all. Overall I would stay here again if I was traveling to Chicago with a big group.
