The place: Super cool mix of old and new house with the Victorian architectural details and the newly renovated kitchen and bathrooms. Lots of books and games to enjoy as well.
There is a downstairs unit, and you can definitely hear their conversations through the ducting. This was a bit of a surprise since we thought it was a single family house, but not too big of a deal.
The parking: we always found street parking in front of the house, though we wouldn’t move the car much.
The location: Walkable to everything, even downtown Chicago! It’s in the border of west loop and felt safe. It’s close to a hospital so you’ll hear ambulances sometimes but nothing to out of the ordinary.
The host: perfectly fine and responsive :)
