It looked like the room we booked downstairs by the kitchen was a rather poor conversion of an utility room into an Airbnb with just an added bed, a desk with a computer on it (no chair), a dishwasher instead of the closet, the other locked door inside the room, a partially missing ceiling allowing all the possible noise come in, but the worse part was a very loud explosive blowing motor above our head, which was an A/C intake vent sucking air for the entire apartment! The first night we almost didn't sleep at all because of it, but also because Nemin and her friend woke us up in the middle of the night when they returned home; they spoke loud, and laughed; for them Friday night was a party time, but for us it was survival... I asked Nemin if she could turn off the A/C for two remaining nights so we could get some sleep, and she agreed. Thank God the weather in Chicago was pretty cold during that weekend, otherwise, I guess it would have been unbearable to stay in this small room without windows and ventilation. Even though now the A/C was off when we came back the second night, sadly, Nemin woke us up again by returning late home. I messaged her about the issue, and begged to respect our right to get some rest at night, but she has never said anything, not even a simple 'sorry', and the last third night we got awaken again, and even multiple times at night and very early in the morning the day of the checkout by the sound of the television and the hair dryer. Well, the accoustic in this apartment is definitely terrible, because you can hear the tiniest noise made by the host living upstairs, but with just a little respect for the guests, I think it could perhaps work. For us, it did not. As for the kitchen, it's a shared space as the living room is. I am grateful I could store my homemade food in the refrigerator, and heat up my dinner. However, it felt like the host mentioned in amenities the use of the kitchen, but in reality didn't feel comfortable with us using it, so it made us uncomfortable, too. Also, I don't know why, but whenever we wanted to prepare something in the kitchen, in a few seconds Nemin was there. I could tell she was very protective about her space, and liked checking on us. I missed such common things like a dish rack, a kitchen towel, cutlery, a cup to make tea. I was using my own things in the kitchen. We left very tired after three days (read: nights) spent in this apartment. You should see me Monday morning. I couldn't wait to check out, and drive back home. I think it was the second time in my 7- year old history of booking on Airbnb to feel like this: let's escape from here ASAP.
