Josh's place was spacious & well appointed. While he near the intersection of two fairly busy streets, noise wasn't an issue at all from the back bedrooms. Great location in terms of coffee shops & restaurants, and if you're traveling with kids, there are a couple of playgrounds close by: honestly, for the price, the location can't be beat if you're looking to explore the northside of the city (or find somewhere to stay for a Cubs game...) The best part of the experience was communication - Josh was very responsive, checked in each day to see if there was anything we needed, and answered any questions we had within minutes. Great place, great host.
