Steve's space served as a wonderful home base for my daughter and me as we explored Chicago. More specifically, we visited DePaul University, which is just a short walk from Steve's apartment. The space has one main bed that sleeps two, but Steve was kind enough to set up a second bed so that we could each have out own bed. Nice bathroom. Space has a small refrigerator and microwave. Outside balcony area is as advertised, and actually more cool/nice in person. Safe walking distance to plenty of great restaurants. Also, Chicago's subway (the "L") has a station near by).
Worth mentioning is that this space does not have a privacy door. This was not a surprise to us as Steve does mention this in his description, but if you are a couple wanting complete privacy in the bedroom, this might not be the space for you. That said, there is enough space between the main apartment and the guest apartment that regular conversations in the two spaces could not be heard.
Bottom line, I would absolutely stay at Steve's place again. He was a wonderful host, the apartment is in a great area, and the space was perfect for our needs.
