It was a great experience . Matt has a very cool apartment with an elevator that goes right to his door. He has a balcony too which you don't see very often in Chicago. We loved his dog Rumble. Matt helped us organize our trip around Chicago and had infinite patience to my thousands of questions. The fruit he offered us in the morning was wonderful. I had read all of the reviews of the train noise at night and we did hear the trains running but frankly we were too tired to be bothered by it. We were also able to park our car and just walked the city which was HUGE. Thank you Matt for a wonderful stay
