I was a little hesitant before booking this airbnb because it was my first time staying in an airbnb in the Chicago area. I didn’t know if the area was safe and wondered if we would be safer staying in a hotel. I wanted to keep the costs to a minimum so I took a leap of faith and booked this airbnb since it checked all our boxes. I’m so glad I booked this airbnb! We felt safe during our whole stay. The place was clean and welcoming and had all the amenities we needed. There is a free designated parking spot on the street and the blue line is just a short walk away. Just around the corner is Dunkin Donuts, Walgreens, Aldi, TJ Maxx, and a gas station along with other small shops. There is even a korean grocery store within walking distance. During our stay, we parked our car and rode the train downtown to site see. We felt safe walking to/from the metro station after dark. It was an amazing experience for the first-timers and I didn’t have to worry about parking expenses or Chicago downtown traffic! We loved the location and the airbnb! This place is perfect for anyone visiting Chicago and planning on using public transport/walking. I’ll definitely book this place again.
