I stayed here for three days while on my trip to Chicago. Gerard and Ernie are great hosts and they offered helpful suggestions about places to eat and shop. Cleanliness- The home, my room and the bathroom were very clean. Location- It is the perfect location if you want to go to Evanston or the north side of Chicago quickly. It is a two minute walk to the nearest red line subway station. Neighborhood- It is an excellent neighborhood and it felt very safe. I walked around a lot in the neighborhood at various times of the day and it always felt safe. Overall- It is an excellent place in all respects. I give it a perfect 5/5 and strongly recommend it to anyone visiting LA.
