Great location, great host, great city
My wife, daughter, and I spent a week at Mike's Airbnb and absolutely loved it. The neighborhood is very active with strollers, dog-walkers, and bicyclists. It's about a 5 minute walk to the Granville station on the Red Line and a 10 minute walk to the park right on Lake Michigan. We drove into the Loop area twice using Lake Shore Drive and it was about 20 minutes each way (we avoided rush hours). There are many great restaurants in the neighborhood all within a few blocks.
The unit is very spacious and the beds are very comfortable. We stayed during some very warm (ok, hot) days so the air conditioner was a necessity and worked just fine. The front porch overlooking Granville is a perfect place to sit and read or talk or listen to music or play games. It's also a great place to experience the sights and sounds of the neighborhood.
Mike and Heather are great hosts and it's easy to see that they take pride in making their guests feel at home. For instance, there was an issue with the coffee maker on the day we were arriving, and Mike called to let me know about it and that they were purchasing a new one. The next morning there was a brand-new coffee maker box on the steps leading up to the unit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Chicago and Mike's Airbnb was a large part of our experience. I would recommend this unit without hesitation to anyone wanting to enjoy the city and also have a great place to relax.
