Carin's place was just lovely. Our flight was delayed multiple times but she stayed up late to greet us. She had pamphlets, maps, and information on the area and how to successfully use the CTA. She had the sweetest little touches that we really appreciated including in room to access to a mini kitchen equipped with snacks and drink mixes. The room and bathroom were clean and extremely spacious. She had amenities in the bathroom which were super nice like soaps (from Trader Joes which is my favorite) and all the towels you'll ever need. It was nice to have our own separate access to the room so we didn't have to walk through the home. The bed was a little hard for my taste but my boyfriend said it was perfect. The train was just like a 15/20 minute walk in the morning with pretty easy directions. Overall, it was just what we needed :)
