I had a shared space in a tiny ‘L’ shaped room with a bed on each side of the L and room for nothing more. While it was a bit smaller than I expected it was described accurately. I didn’t interact with the host but a man was sitting on the couch when I arrived late and when I left early-he answered my few questions. My room was in the attic and the space had a low ceiling and seemed somewhat unfinished. The few guests I saw were polite and quiet. The common area was a bit stuffy and dated. It was fairly close to the Blue line near Ohare. This is very similar to a hostel. It met my needs and budget.
