Carin was a wonderful host! My husband and I went to Chicago for our 1 year anniversary and when we arrived there were flowers and a Happy Anniversary card laying out on the table. We felt welcome and at home the minute we stepped into Carin's house. The neighborhood was also a great bonus. There were several delicious places to eat in Lakeview, it was a short train ride to The Loop and we always felt safe. If we ever find ourselves in Chicago again, we will definitely be staying with Carin :)
