We LOVED staying at Carmen and John’s place. It was my first time in Chicago and this really couldn’t have been a better location. The lower level unit stayed nice and cool on a very hot week. Additionally, my husband and I were celebrating our honeymoon, and we really had a great time — especially with all of the extensive suggestions given to us by John at check-in (live blues @ Rosa’s place; getting a local bus card and 3-day bus pass at Walgreens to get all over the city), not to mention all of the myriad of maps, menus, and thoughtfully prepared write-ups in the check in book.
The bed was super comfortable, the shower had great pressure, and Carmen and John went out of their way to ensure we had some goodies in the fridge after a long day of delayed travel.
We would 100% recommend this place and these hosts to any traveler. Nice walking neighborhood; close to many bus lines, and an easy walk to restaurants, bars, and unique architecture and food in the nearby Ukrainian Village.
Can’t wait to come again!
