Rooms for Rent in Illinois, USA

My current roommate is moving out but the lease renews somewhat soon and I'd rather not take on the full financial weight of the apartment as well as simply preferring having someone else in the place rather than not. I mostly stick to either my room or the living room keeping primarily to myself but not hard [REDACTED] is yours" type of thing with the only real exceptions being emotional keepsakes and my computer since I use it for work. If you do need to use anything of mine though all I ask is that you let me know, even if it's after the fact. Just to be clear this includes food, drink, cleaning products, whatever so long as you let me know or ask in some way. There is a laundry facility, a pool, a gym, I pay for pretty dang high speed internet, have a good amount of gaming consoles and a nice TV, as well as furnishing for at least the living room and the kitchen. I can't guarantee your room will be furnished as I'm not sure what all my current roommate is taking with him. I can guarantee there will be a desk in your room should you want it kept since I bought it. The parking is free generally but you can apply to rent a garage and the apartment itself is within walking distance of plenty so that's a plus as well as being very close to several bus stops should that be your preferred mode of transportation. There is a lot of grass and trees so you get a decent amount of fresh air for being essentially in the city. All around a great place to live in my opinion. Some small caveats are that I prefer it cool so it'll always be set fairly low if I have the opportunity to do so so please either ask to change it or just get a blanket or jacket or space heater. Also I don't have anything close to a consistent sleep schedule so if you hear someone moving about at night or talking in the apartment it's very likely just me going about my business. Feel free to ask me to quiet down or use headphones should I be disruptive at all.
