It was perfect for what I needed it for. The room was private and comfortable. If you're a social person you can go out into the common spaces. I had a bathroom right next to my room which was great. Its an older house so its not perfect but its not dirty or uncomfortable to be in. The host was kind and hospitable. This was definitely worth the price. It was my first time renting a room and now I'm nervous about doing it again. I had a concert to attend and from this location, it was a 4min walk and one bus to Downtown (Soldier Field) and on the way back the buses ran late enough for me to save money and ride one back. The neighborhood felt safe enough for me to walk through at 1am.
