Makeda was really an awesome host! She was really flexible on checking in! I had a few crazy flights that didn't let me arrive at her space until 10:30 pm or so, and she made it really easy for me! When I arrived she was really open to answering any questions I had about the neighborhood, what the neighborhoods in the area were like and how to take the train (that was steps away). She really eased my anxiety especially since I'm going to be a new student in Chicago! Thank you!
