This is how all Airbnb’s should be ! Superb host, great location and a real and lively apartment full of art (made by himself) and Art Deco accessories that Michael collects. Communication with Michael was perfect. He kindly asked me if I would be willing to stay in the “curtain room” as there was also an older couple staying there who preferred to sleep in the room without having to climb up some extra stairs. Guess what; this room was actually even better. A real “loft-feeling” in this room on a split level facing the great high windows in the front of the apartment. In the middle of River North, where it’s lively, but never hostile till late at night. Some earplugs (available in appt) and a great bed were all I needed to enjoy my sleep and wake up fresh in the morning to enjoy Chicago once again. Whenever I come back to Chicago this would be my preferred place to stay (again!)
