Aaron’s space was large, lofty, and nicely appointed. It is about a 10 minute walk from the Chicago Blue-line stop and we ended up doing an equal amount of public transit and Ubering. While you might find available parking on an indicated side street, that is by no means guaranteed. There is NO dedicated parking spot for this space. Your best bet would be to avoid bringing a car to Chicago—Uber and public transit make it very easy to get along without it. We used the spacious kitchen quite a bit while we were there, and found it to be generally well-appointed. We never felt unsafe in our neighborhood, even when walking back at 11 or midnight from the train station. There is a lovely park just a couple of blocks away that is great for people watching or reading under the trees. Aaron did attend Burning Man and was completely off the grid for the first half of our stay. Fortunately, we did not have any pressing issues at that time that needed immediate service. Finally, just a few words about upstairs noise. We are used to living in single-family detached homes with no upstairs neighbors, so we may be more sensitive than most to noise from above. However, from the first day that we arrived until leaving we found the upstairs noise bothersome and disruptive. Whether it was hearing actual conversations, noisy footsteps, banging construction, or guitar playing it bothered all of us to some degree or another. The gentleman that lives above was not trying to be annoying—I think it just mainly has to do with the acoustics of the space. It is a large open space with brick walls and wood ceiling/floors that causes sound to reverberate throughout. I specifically asked Aaron about this before booking and he stated truthfully that no one had commented on it previously. If you are sensitive about this, definitely give some pause before booking.
