Roberto's place is a 2 br basement flat in a quiet neighborhood in the Hermosa section of Chicago. It couldn't have been much more lovely and comfortable. The flat is clean, very nicely decorated, and with lots of light in the living/kitchen area. Roberto and Miriam have also added tons of very thoughtful little touches and amenities that, even if you don't use them, make you feel well care for. Communication with Roberto couldn't have been easier. He welcomed us warmly when we arrived, showed us around, and then left us to explore.
Roberto recommended a local Cuban restaurant - Senor Pan - which was literally around the corner; it was terrific. My wife and I also walked a ways to a panaderia and picked up some nice fresh baked things for breakfast.
If you're looking to experience a Chicago neighborhood that's away from downtown (although it's easy enough to get in and out), and a comfortable place with great hosts, this is a solid option.
