BEST.AIRBNB. EVER. I’ve stayed at a lot of airbnbs, and Nicholas is the BEST host I have ever had. He is kind, communicative, and all around a great person. I recommend getting to know him during your stay because he made our trip so amazing that we extended it. He was quick to respond to our messages and had many recommendations for us as it was our first time in Chicago.The pictures do not do the place justice, the high ceilings and crown molding are a very nice touch! The house is much larger and nicer than the pictures can show. And, Nicholas did all the work himself, which just shows how much dedication he has to this place. Room 4 was perfect for my girlfriend and I to work remotely. We had lots of space, and there were plenty of other spaces to work as well. His kitchen is stocked with spices, pots and pans, and the coffee bar was just what we needed. It had snacks, different assortments of coffee and tea, and creamer and sweetener. As an added bonus, the game and selfie room was SO fun! Nicholas built the systems himself, which is impressive. Nicholas works hard on a daily basis to keep the place spotless, and the bathrooms were very clean. The two bathrooms also meant that there was not a wait to use one in this shared space. As for the area, there are many bus stops on the same block of the Airbnb, and it is in walking distance to a few restaurants and shops. Whole foods, Walgreens, Chipotle, Wingstop, Sharks Fish and Chicken (etc), and red/green line CTA are a short bike ride or bus ride away. Bikes are around the block of the Airbnb. The street itself was quiet, and the neighbors pretty nice. We felt comfortable at night taking an Uber back from the train station, and it was a short ride. Considering the affordable price, convenient location, beautiful interior and the host’s hospitality, we would stay here time and time again.
