Amazing Stay

There were 5 women staying two nights for a local women's conference. The house was very clean with all the amenities you could ask for. The neighborhood was beautiful, quiet, and felt quite safe. I would have been comfortable taking a walk around the house alone had I had time! The town is so cute, too. Everything was in good repair and looked just like the pictures online. I would HIGHLY recommend this place. It was a lovely place to stay.

Very comfy and beautifully decorated.

Loved the townhouse and all the beautiful furnishings. The beds were very comfortable. The location was perfect for what we are doing in Chicago. We would definitely stay here again the next time we come back to the city. We had everything we needed. The owner was great too. We also love Manteno, a very cute little city.

Perfect fit and location

We came back to see family and bring our 2 foreign exchange students on a trip to see not only my hometown but Chicago as well. Home was bigger then we expected. Use of the garage was amazing. Owner very responsive. We will definitely stay here again when coming back home to visit. Being only 20 minutes from the train station was perfect for getting downtown and back with ease.

2nd visit inspired by 1st visit.

My second stay at this beautiful property was just as my first stay, clean, homie, and very comfortable! Ami is an excellent host! I have not experience a bad stay with Ami. If you are planning to visit the area you must look up Ami, you will be more than satisfied! The pictures online are nice, however, the live in experience of this beautiful home is more than pleasing! Thank you Ami for a wonderful stay!

Home away from home

The home is very clean and homie! The pictures do not give this beautiful property justice. The patio is very beautiful to sit in the morning and afternoon while sipping tea or coffee. Ami is a very gracious host. Ami was available prior, duriing, and after our stay. If you are ever looking for a property to stay in the area you must contact Ami. Thank you Ami and I and my family would love to stay in your lovely, peaceful, beautiful, home away from home property again!
