pros: 13 minute walk from cta station. safe neighborhood, even at night. use of kitchen was convenient. adequate privacy. no drama from the other guys who lived there. quick replies from the host. easy to get in contact with host. good indoor temperature. easy check in.
cons: slow internet. cleanliness of the bathroom depends on the person you're sharing the bathroom with. 2 of the men were mostly clean, 1 guy was not. floors creak a lot when walking around.
overall: i had a pleasant stay and would probably book again.
other: people in the reviews complained about the rules, but i thought they were very comparable to many other airbnbs i've stayed at.
