Rachel was very warm and welcoming. She made sure my stay was pleasant and comfortable. I love coming back to the place with the pleasant music in the background, room tidied up, fresh fruits and a pitch of iced water prepared by her on the table; such personal touches make it feel very cozy. The neighborhood is safe and very close Loyola University, with many surrounding coffee shops and restaurants. Rachel provided lots of information on nearby places and things to do. She is a great host!
