Dany is a nice host offering two of his rooms for airbnb. The room and bathroom were clean, thanks to a clear set of rules regarding everyone's responsibilities. So don't expect a hotel or anything similar.
The apartment is very old and the room small. It is well located in Lincoln Park only a short walk away from the zoo. There is a bus stop right at the corner and it takes you downtown in about 15 min (depending on traffic). We felt safe at all times, in the apartment as well as in the neighborhood.
