This is a decent place to stay for the price. It is located near the Blue Line train, which runs to downtown and to O'hare airport. On the other hand, there are some things you should know before staying. The location is convenient, but does not appear to be completely safe. We stayed there for a couple of nights, and saw some questionable activity. There were other guests staying in the home, who we found smoking marijuana on the front porch area of the home. We saw what appeared to be drug deals in the streets near the home. We also came home late one night and walked past two groups of two to three police cars staked out within a couple of blocks of the home. We did not see any direct violence, but these activities did concern us. We also did not know ahead of time that there would be many other people staying in the home with the host not present. When we arrived, there were many rooms for guests, each with a lockpad on the door to the room. We were able to enter the house, but had to wait for a response from the host to get a code in order to get into our room. On the plus side, there was a woman who came to clean the home on a daily basis. She was polite and gave us some recommendations on local activities.
