This location could not have been more perfect for what I needed in Chicago. I had two jobs that were both 10-20 minutes walking distance, and it was very close to the brown line and two bus stops, which allowed to get me to just about anywhere in the city I needed. I never had any problems at any time of day/night with the neighborhood and never felt unsafe. There were plenty of great places to go out to eat, as well as a grocery store and several convenience stores only a 5 minute walk away.
The living space was minimal but definitely livable. There were occasional home improvement projects, but I was always given plenty of notice and they didn't interfere with my daily life. I definitely over packed for my stay; the place is fully furnished and you can certainly live here for an extended amount of time with just a suitcase or two. (Bonus: the yard/garden is beautiful.)
Angela was one of the most pleasant hosts I've ever stayed with. I had all the privacy I wanted, but she was always willing to come quickly if I needed her. She answered any question/email/call I had very promptly and was always helpful. She's also just a great person to sit down for a cup of coffee with and have a conversation. If I hadn't moved away from Chicago for school, I definitely would have stayed here longer.
