We spent two nights at Teo's place at the beginning of August. The apartment is very well located, in the Magnificient mile area and though in a quiet street. The main noise is coming from the air conditioning turbines in the back of the building, so that the front room is more quiet than the back one. The apartment is in on old Chicago building very nicely refurbished. The apartment is also in an excellent condition, with wood floors, air conditioning, it is very pleasant and comfortable. Unfortunately, Teo was not at home and we did not meet, but he made everything simple for us to get the keys and gave us some good advices. I asked him a lot of questions and he was always very responsive. He also made us feel at home and proposed that we use his ingredients in the kitchen in order to cook and eat the fruits he had left in the fridge. As Teo was very busy working on his PhD thesis prior to our arrival, I guess he did not have time to thouroughly clean the apartment, but linens and towels were clean and the apartment was tidy. I already said this in a previous comment: when I choose airBnB I do not expect to be at the hotel I like to be at the place where people are living as if I was visiting friends. So I do not expect the place to be as clean and empty as and hotel room. I definitively recommend Teo's apartment located in the greatest city in the US Chicago!
