The hosts are very nice, welcoming, and communicative. However, you will not expect talking with them a lot since they might be busy. The room I stayed in was huge, clean, and comfortable. The room has two very big closets. The closets have places that you can put a lot of clothes on. The room has hangers that you can hang your clothes in the closets. There are three charger stations on the wall around the room. The house has a full kitchen that has a fridge and a microwave. It has a sink that has the water purifier, so you can drink tap water straight out of the sink. You can buy to-go foods and leave them in the fridge over night, and then you can use the microwave to cook the food in the morning. The bathroom on the first floor is shared with one or two other guests next room. The bathroom was clean. Sometimes, a lot of guests check in and check out, so the hosts might not have enough time to clean the bathroom. The bathroom sometimes might look a little unclean, but that’s not the hosts’ fault. The bathroom is sometimes unclean because the other hosts didn’t clean up after themselves. There is a lady who comes to clean the whole house twice a week. You might encounter her at some point of your stay. Talking about the neighborhood, it’s up-and-coming/ being gentrified. The surrounding area of U of C is relatively safe, even at night because UCPD (UC Police Department) has full power to patrol the area around 63rd & Cottage Grove 24/7. I encounter so many police officers and security guards around U of C campus. I walked around the area between 63rd street and Cottage Grove at midnight every day because I need to use the green line CTA train a lot to go to downtown Chicago (the Loop). The area around the green line CTA station has a few homeless, but it’s very safe. I walked around the area at midnight and early in the morning at 4:30 am and found nothing harmful. By the 63rd & Cottage Grove green line CTA station, there is a Divvy bike dock. I took the bike from the station and then ride to U of C campus every day during my stay. Washington Park is beautiful with Dusable Museum and the Fountain of Time. Jackson Park is beautiful with Japanese Osaka Phoenix Garden, Yoko Ono sculpture, Animal bridge, Tyger Wood Golf Course, and the future Obama Library Presidential Center. The area around Museum of Science & Industry (MSI) and Jackson Park is very safe at midnight. I walked there a lot at midnight and found nothing unsafe or bizarre happened to me. The U of C campus has a lot of tourist attractions like: the Rockefeller Chapel, Oriental Institute, Smart Museum, Hyde Park Art Museum, Robie House, Booth School of Business, Calvert House Catholic Center, and Midway Plaisance.
