Overall a decent stay for a great value. Felt kinda like a hostel to me. The neighbors were out and about during the day, hanging out on their porches. I'm not sure if they are too keen on the house hosting so many folks from out of town, but they were friendly enough to me. The neighborhood is a bit rough around the edges - I wouldn't be comfortable with my wife staying there alone and walking around at night.
That being said, it is very accessible to the U of Chicago campus, which I greatly enjoyed walking through to get to the Museum of Science & Industry where I was attending a conference. The front door lock is digital, which makes entry / exit smooth. I also felt that my property was safe when I left the house since there is a digital lock on each bedroom door as well. I did not meet or see the host(s), but communication was efficient.
So basically, you're not going to want to hang out at the property longer than you need to, but this is a good value if you're just looking for a place to get cleaned up and sleep.
