Overall: Great affordable option for those looking for a practical location and planning to spend most of their time out and about in Chicago. I stayed here during a week-long conference so I really was just looking for a nice place to sleep and commute from, and it fit my needs just fine. The other guests were very friendly and all international. Drew is a very accommodating and responsive host. Be aware of the house rules, as they are more particular than I have found with other hosts, but still reasonable.
The Space: Large common spaces with three small private rooms, exceptionally well-stocked full kitchen, easy to open windows for fresh air. There are the building, the unit and the private rooms all have code-locks, so it felt super secure.
Location: It's on the same block as a Green Line station, which I used every day. A large grocery store Mariano's is just a few blocks away as well. Nearby parking on the street was always easy to find.
