I stayed at Aaron's place over the New Year's weekend. It was only blocks away from where my nephew's wedding was taking place, so it was the perfect location --- and in a great neighborhood with all the amenities you might need, from shopping to sightseeing. The parking spot was a big plus, as street parking filled up quickly by evening. Aaron made everything so welcoming, providing lots of helpful information before the trip, as well as on cute/funny little reminder cards in various rooms of the house. He also was very responsive to my phone call when I first arrived ... from a catamaran in the Virgin Islands! Now, that is a commitment to ensuring my expectations were met!I loved the option of having the pull-out sofa bed! That allowed me to have my son and his wife from Los Angeles come down for the weekend for a couple days. AND, that bed was amazing! We were so surprised to find a high-end Crate & Barrel memory foam queen mattress in the sofa. It was difficult to get them out of bed in the morning! I really appreciated this experience over a hotel room, as we spent a couple nights at "home" playing scrabble and watching a football game. I also loved the idea that so many "supplies" were available for cooking (and great cookware!), like spices and oil, etc. It was easy to replace the bottled water and some of the other basic items there for us, as well as make a contribution to the refrigerator inventory for the next guests. Having the WI-FI was great --- a very strong signal. Also, the double door for the bathroom allowed us to enter from the kitchen OR the bedroom. That helps when you have guess in the living room.
