A couple of friends and I stayed at Ed's little condo for a weekend, and we really enjoyed our stay!
The apartment was cozy and clean, and Ed definitely made sure we felt right at home. He even welcomed us to use his kitchen, offering pasta and spices that would definitely be useful for home cooking. If eating out is more of your style, Ed leaves you with an awesome welcome packet: suggestions of bars and eateries, and simple instructions for the details of his condo.
The condo itself was also very well stocked with things we'd need during our stay: toilet paper, garbage bags, paper towels, etc. Ed keeps extra pillows and blankets for anyone who might wanna to sleep on the couch, a variety of DVD's for a lazy night in, and even a surfboard and boogie board for fun times at the beach. We had everything we needed during our stay.
We didn't get the chance to meet Ed personally, but we definitely felt like we were staying at a friend's. (:
