This was my dad's and my first Airbnb experience and it was amazing! It was inexpensive compared to a hotel and offered a better location (walking distance to everything including the "L" which was a quick ride to downtown). Steve's friend Kordt was actually house sitting while we were here and he couldn't have made us feel more welcome. Kordt gave us plenty of ideas for things to do around the city and even offered coffee and breakfast every morning. I recommend Steve's place to anyone traveling to Chicago - it was a place I felt safe at, a place that was close to everything we wanted to do, and came with very sweet home owners/home owners' friends :-)
