Ying is very prompt in answering to all my questions and needs. The neighborhood looks a little sketchy but I didn't feel unsafe...its a very ethnic area and I highly recommend checking out La Palapa restaurant which is like a 5 min walk from the house. The main reasons why I chose this place was because of the price and location. It is a 5 min walk from the subway station which was very convenient in exploring the city of Chicago. I had no car so subway and bus was fine and ideal especially with all the crazy traffic you could potentially encounter. The room itself is actually the whole 2nd floor of the house which you stay in. The AC, fan, and small fridge was very convenient...Ying also provided us with towels and shampoo/soap. Nothing fancy like a 5-star-hotel...just a nice private space to sleep at night at an affordable price with easy access to the city which I was looking for. Another good thing to know is there is a walgreens nearby if you ever need to buy something or forgot to bring. Thanks Ying for letting us stay at your place!
