The room was clean, private and more than adequate. Greg is a really nice, intelligent, laid back guy. He gave excellent recommendations for things to do and places to eat. His home is conveniently located to getting around Chicago and immediately off the brown line(<1 block). The area is walk-able, feels safe and lined with cute shops and restaurants. The breakfasts he made were delicious and easily comparable or better than what we would have paid $25-$30 for in restaurant, so value-wise staying with Greg makes all the sense in the world. The best part of our stay were his dogs, Lola and Ray Charles. They are both extremely well behaved and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

My only caveat is.. as always with AirBnB, its not a hotel, its not perfect, many of the homes in the area are older. There are stairs to the basement I would never recommend for my Grandma, but were perfectly fine for me and my boyfriend.
