I was booked to stay at Dany's for five nights, however, I had to relocate to a downtown hotel for a few nights for work-related reasons.
I did stay in Dany's smaller room with the futon bed for two nights though. It was fine for me, but might be a little tight for a couple.
His two cats were friendly, but never got underfoot. Dany was very helpful in terms of the key exchange and was very knowledgable about the area. He genuinely seemed to want me to get the most out of Chicago.
His place is located on a very beautiful street and is within walking distance to several restaurants, coffee shops and bars. It's very close to Lincoln Park Zoo and not far from the Old Town. I even walked to Wrigley Stadium.
It's not a long taxi/Uber/Lyft ride to The Loop and his place is fairly close to a metro station and bus stops.
It's not a fancy place, but it's clean and comfortable and you're not going to find many AirBnB spots as reasonably priced in that area. I'll definitely be looking Dany's place up again when I go to Chicago
