Michael is a great host! Communicates very well and very quickly using the messaging feature on airbnb. While the room is located inside his apartment, we basically had the whole place to ourselves. Never encountered another person. It was quiet, comfortable, and convenient. Very close to Chicago’s West Loop! It is located on the edge of a sketchy area so I didn’t feel comfortable walking outside alone but that didn’t matter much because his place is on an upper floor of a locked, secure building. It was easy to just walk right out the main front door and hop into the uber.
