Bittersweet. After driving 8 hours, Leon had given me the wrong entry code. Super frustrating, but fortunately he responded withing 5-10 minutes. His maintenance guy was very nice and smoothed out the edges I was experiencing. The kitchen sponge was scary, so, if the dishes were washed with it, that's even scarier. I had a brand new sponge with me, by chance, so I used my own. The place felt super impersonal and a hodgepodge of cheap. The couch looked like it had been picked up off the side of the street, so, I didn't even sit on it. I've been using air bnb for years, and just never had an experience like this, so, I was just a bit shocked. We pay extra for Airbnb places, so, expect a certain standard. But, hey, I guess that is Chicago city for you. I was happy to have a clean place to rest with my dog. I felt safe walking him on the street. The bedrooms seemed clean, but be prepared for pillows as flat as a sheet of paper. Loud bar on the corner, but I'm no stranger to city sounds. I was disappointed with the place after reading Leon's hosting profile. He seemed like he had so much life and love of hosting, but this was not portrayed in his place . Seems like it was an after thought and all his communication felt robotic. I guess it was cheap for Chicago and you get what you pay for. I wouldn't stay here again, but if I had a couple days to adjust to the initial disappointment, it would suffice alright for a stay in Chicago.
