Cute and convenient!

This is a very cute comfortable home, very conveniently located. We moved out of the DeKalb area in 2009 but return to see friends periodically and this suited our needs quite well. Comfy beds, essentials in the kitchen and very clean. Will stay again the next time around.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Gordillo

Host profile image
I live in Chicago with my family. I go back and forth to Northern Illinois University which is where I attend school. This property is my first property ever so I am glad to be sharing it with you as my guests. I love the hospitality I bring to this business. My favorite part is making sure my property is well-suited and the most comfortable place to stay for a weekend getaway, vacations, coming to see family, and more.
