Our stay at Corey's place in Chicago was a good one. The apartment is beautifully furnished and the fact that it was stocked with coffee, breakfast essentials, and snacks made starting the day easy and convenient. The beds were comfortable, shower pressure was grand, and my whole party found themselves extremely comfortable spending time here. Corey made sure to check in on us multiple times, and was always just a text away should we have needed anything. There's a reason he's a Superhost.
I'll finish up this review by mentioning the elephant in the room: the neighborhood. Coming from Detroit, we weren't really overly concerned about the neighborhood and were pleasantly surprised with the upkeep on the block. This is the South Side of Chicago, however, and the surrounding area wasn't the best. Our one walk to public transportation (the closest Greenline station) felt slightly unsafe. Both Lyft drivers and CTA employees reminded us to always be aware of our surroundings - subtle hints to be careful in this area. However, once inside the unit we felt totally secure, and all of the door locks (the gate, outer door, inner door, and apartment door) worked well.
Overall, a great experience with an excellent host.
