I would describe this house as a diamond in the rough. The area can get a bit dodgy in the evenings but it's nothing to be concerned about and Ryan is very upfront about the local surroundings. The house itself is beautiful and has a nice antique feel to it. The beds were extremely comfortable and the snack bar was very convenient to have. For the price of the AirBnB and its proximity to the train station, this is an amazing deal for those hoping to stay in Chicago. I never had the chance to meet Ryan in person but he was always quick to respond to any queries I had. Thanks Ryan!
