Calling all AirBnB'ers looking to stay in Hyde Park / near the University of Chicago! Do you want to stay in a beautiful, spacious, cozy, clean room and apartment? Do you want a knowledgeable, easy-going, conversational host? Look no further.
I stayed with Rebecca for an interview at the University of Chicago, and I can't recommend her enough. On the first day, I expressed that I did not know much about Hyde Park and had never seen many of the sights of Chicago, and she kindly drove me around, pointing out the sights of the city. Her knowledge of Chicago is unparalleled, so regardless of if you're staying in Hyde Park or venturing beyond the neighborhood, she can point you to all of the best places. Her apartment is 5-10 minutes walking distance from the University of Chicago, just as advertised. The room itself was pristine, and it shows that she puts the utmost thought in accommodating her guests - comfortable and clean sheets, blankets, and pillows; city guides; USB chargers; a garment steamer, slippers, etc. Additionally, Rebecca provided towels and soap for my stay, as well as space in the bathroom to keep my toiletries. And on top of all of the great conversation and hospitality during my visit, she also prepared breakfast for us twice during my stay!
Best AirBnB I've ever stayed in; could not recommend her enough!
