Ryan's place is like a castle! It's beautiful & almost feels like a cross between a hostel & a hotel. He's extremely communicative & very flexible to accommodate bag drops & holds if needed. The room was exactly as described & I didn't feel like I had to worry about anything. I have no complaints about the place.
Because the house is so big sound echos in certain areas & you can hear other guests. While some were mindful of this, not everyone was.
The neighborhood at a glance can be concerning, but we had no issues at all during our stay. To get around, I would recommend taking the cta during the day & a lyft at night. I felt extremely safe at the house. There's a coded entry to get in & out of not only the house, but the front gate as well.
