Matt was a delightful host and on a weekend when he was travelling and away from his apartment, he was still more than accommodating. Because he was gone, we didn't necessarily have the typical check-in experience, but Matt had a friend ready to meet us and everything was very smooth. The apartment was clean and matched the online description almost perfectly.

I read a number of reviews that mentioned the noise from the "L" train. It is definitely there, but my wife and I didn't have an overwhelmingly hard time sleeping (even without using the ear plugs that Matt provided). We were out all day and always tired when we were going to sleep, but a white-noise app on my phone was enough for us to fall asleep and stay asleep. If you are a very light sleeper, you might want to look elsewhere for lodging.

Otherwise, the neighborhood/location was great, Matt was a delightful host (he helped me figure out where to get deep-dish and when to leave for my flight out of Chicago), and the apartment was exactly as I expected it to be!
