You cant get a nicer host, and I am not talking about her but Christopher :)
She is close though, and she will go length to respect your stay, needs and type.
The room is very big, and the bed really firm. She has all the supplies ready for you so dont sweat it if you were in need of something. A big kitchen with lots of ingredients for public use will make your life easy if you prepare your own food.
My advise, work on the commute logistics and plan to spend a little more for commute back and forth to Downtown or O'Hare International Airport, and you will enjoy the place because for that price, it is unbelievable.
