It was the first time in two years that my big family of 8 could all gather together for a holiday. We chose to stay with Helena to accommodate the majority of us and it was truly perfect. The big kitchen gave us the opportunity to cook at home together and enjoy a meal. The nearness to downtown Chicago gave us the option to take a $15 Lyft to grab some pizza. The beds were wonderfully comfortable. More comfortable than I have at my own home even! My favorite part of the house was the back deck - we sat on the deck in the sunny afternoons and drank local beer and relaxed. Would definitely recommend for big families and would stay here again. Truly a wonderful first ABnB experience. Thank you again!
