Nate totally made me feel welcome in his spacious and clean apartment. He's super laid back and helpful with information and tips if you need them. The neighborhood is a little rundown and I wouldn't suggest walking around at night, but the King Drive station on the Green Line is only a few blocks away and I used it without incident during the day to get into the city in under 30 minutes. If you're in town to see the sights, just be ready to call and Uber or a taxi to get around (15 - 20$ into the Loop). Otherwise, the space is lovely and Nate is great.
