Words can’t express how amazing Carmen and John are as hosts. I was welcomed at the gate and surprised to see a fridge already stocked with muffins, bread, egg, milk and more. Carmen gave a great overview of the city, and answered all my 101 questions, which as a first timer in Chicago was extremely helpful. To top it all off they invited me over for dinner and I got to enjoy some beautiful music in Johns amazing music room, his collection is a must see!!! They truly made this place feel like a home away from home and I will definitely be staying here everytime I come to Chicago! Plus the location is great, safe neighbourhood (I went for walks almost everyday) stores/restaurants close by, and transport to downtown very accessible (you can get to downtown within 30mins)
