I came to Chicago to sightsee with my boyfriend and stayed in a room in Michael's place. Our room was very comfortable and served us well during our four nights in Chicago! Michael was a very helpful host, giving us recommendations for local eateries, transportation options, and sightseeing must-gos. He was also extremely responsive to messages and maintained a constant communication with us over our stay regarding the room and checking in with us on whether the house was maintained comfortably. The Airbnb is in an extremely convenient location for public transit by bike, bus, or train. We have felt/heard concerns about the safety of the neighborhood but luckily(?) did not have any negative encounters with strangers here.
