The Good:
1. I was greeted by Sharons' father, Frank; a former Marine. Semper Fi! I was stoked to meet him.
2. The room was was exactly like the picture. No surprises are always a plus.
3. Transportation was convenient.
4. The host was very nice; even shared a craft beer with me. Woot Woot!
5. You must remove shoes to enter the house. I liked this because it worked with my sensitivity to dust, and the house stays really clean.

The Bad:
1. Not about the accommodations themselves, but I just had terrible luck with the food in Chicago. I'd heard so many great things about the food, and quite frankly, the food just fell flat. To be fair, it's not like I ate at every restaurant in Chicago, but, even the highly rated places on Yelp were over rated. If you have to eat, take a 20 minute walk to the University Village, it's better than the places around the corner, Seriously.
2. Even with the fan, it was little warm in the room for my taste (Sept. 14th-19) but then again, I didn't say anything, and I'm sure Sharon would have been accommodating, so it was probably my fault.
3. This can be really good for some people: There are 7 locks to go through to get into the main living area and you are asked to lock every one when you come in and out. I didn't mind it except when I was trying to catch a bus and was running a little late, but, que sera.
4. I wish I would have had time to hang out with the Leatherneck.
