We loved our stay at Efren’s place. We are a couple traveling with our 17-year-old son and 90-year-old Grandma, and everyone was happy with our rental. It was clean and well-equipped. Our son was happy to have his own room with a futon (better than sleeping in the living room). The garage parking was a nice touch.

AndreaRating, 5 stars1 day ago

From booking to check out Wendy and Matt communicated with me every step of the way. Very responsive, helpful, and friendly. The Airbnb is just as described and is absolutely beautiful, but also comfortable and homey. They have thought of everything. My husband and I both had to work some and the desk set up with extra large monitors was the best surprise! The location is perfect-walkable to some really fun restaurants. We went to Happy Camper, Small Cheval, and Mr. Gyros. The red line is right around the corner and we felt very safe walking the neighborhood after dark. You will meet many people on the street with friendly dogs :) The ability to park our car off the street was also one of the best perks of this place! Our family couldn’t have picked a better place to spend our time in Chicago. Thank you Matt and Wendy!
