Betsy and Gerhard were exemplary hosts. All of our needs were anticipated but an open channel of communication was maintained throughout our stay. The listing is exactly as advertised and feels like home. A grocery store and several restaurants are within walking distance or a main CTA route is easily accessable and incredibly convenient. Our stay was for five days and for that time felt no need to drive our vehicle.

One suggestion I would make for those interested in this listing would be to bring a laptop and a HDMI cable. This allows for DVD watching (there is a Redbox a block away) and Netflix otherwise there is only a a television with standard channels.
