I had a lovely and comfortable stay at Ran's. VERY cozy bed- and for being in a state of 9 hour jetlag after flying in from Europe, it was great to settle in and sleep. The bedroom is spacious and bright. I felt like Ran was my room-mate more than a host- he was gracious and kind- and we had some nice conversations. He was also extremely generous in not charging me extra when I had to stay longer while waiting for my suitcase to show up from the airline. The location is a few blocks from the bus stop- but is on a very quiet street- no traffic sounds in the night- and only 5 minutes from downtown, the bus depot, etc. I highly recommend Ran's if you want a comfy and relaxed, affordable, and central place to stay.
