Gerardo and Erica are the exact reason why I love Airbnb so much. They were welcoming even with my late arrival, accommodating to allow me to leave my suitcase at their home after checking out for a few hours before my flight, and so thoughtful in that every detail was taken care of.
The room was spotless, and everything was cleanly decorated - I even loved the fun art on the walls. I had an interview at UIC, and Gerardo gave me directions to the building I needed, and it was easily walking distance. Also safe walking distance to a variety of local restaurants and bars. They were quick to respond, and the electronic keypad on the front door made check-in as simple as possible. Their home is beautiful, and Erica was always friendly.
I highly recommend staying with them!
