    My time staying with Angie and Mike in Chicago was an absolutely delightful experience. Their hospitality was unparalleled, ensuring that my every need was attended to and that I always felt at home. Their residence, situated near the University of Chicago and the Metra Train Station, was the perfect base from which those that want to study and enjoy downtown.
    Angie and Mike and their family are not just hosts but became friends during my stay.
    I recommend staying with Angie and Mike. I miss them so much. They received me as a family member, and took care of everything I needed during seven months.
    I am waiting to visiting them again soon.

    Geovana was a wonderful houseguest. From the moment she walked into our home, we knew that
    she would fit right in and be part of our family. Geovana learned very quickly how to get around Chicago she explored and discovered so many new experiences here. We did so much together ….lunches, dinners, shopping trips, walks,movie night, cooking , thanksgiving, and Christmas .Geovana’s family visited with us. It was such a special time to get to know her children and husband and learn about their culture and country. I wish Geovana and her family all the best.We are planning a trip for next year to see her.Can’t wait! Miss you my friend.

    Angie and Mike are perfect hosts. It was like living with my own family. They are very welcoming, supportive and warm-hearted people. They helped me to get to know the neighborhood with all the hidden nice places. I always felt comfortable and enjoyed cycling around; UChicago was in convenient distance.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?
