I had an excellent experience, being hosted by Royal in Chicago. I would very highly recommend this space for future travelers. These are my personal highlights:
1. From the start, Royal is an excellent communicator. He was easy to get in contact with, super-responsive to questions and concerns, and very complete in answering questions and giving instructions.
2. Royal's place is in an awesome location, within walking distance to many major attractions, including Grant park, and the museum campuses. Giordano's pizza is one block away, as well as a grocery store.
3. The place itself is clean, modern-chic and as advertised. I especially liked the view of the iconic Willis Tower (aka the Sears Tower) from the master bedroom.
If you want to have a great time in the near Southside, this is the spot for you...well it was definitely for us.
