I was over the moon impressed with the apartment and the host really making this an amazing experience. After having used Airbnb for 5+ years I feel like this is one of the few hidden gems that I hope to come back every time I go to Chicago. The apartment is exactly like displayed in the pictures...just more spacious than I thought it would be. What I didn't know beforehand (because I booked it very last minute) is how great the location is - train station 1 minute away, cafés, restaurants, etc are all right next door. Max was the best host I've ever seen (and I've booked many apartments over the years as you can see in the hosts that reviewed me). Max was very professional, friendly and a great eye for detail...check-in and check-out has been very smooth and Max has been super helpful. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. I hope to be back in Chicago soon and hopefully Max' place isn't booking up too quickly for the time when I come back.
