Our three-night stay at Alexandra's was absolutely wonderful; as a couple with a young baby it was great to be saving some money over the cost of a hotel, and it fit our needs better than any hotel could have. The house is a quirky victorian, with high ceilings and a fan in almost every room to keep things at the right temperature. Our room was spacious (enough room for the portacrib we brought), clean, well-appointed with space in dressers and closets for us to unpack our things, and had lots of natural light from the tall windows. Alexandra has young grandchildren, so since she knew we were coming with a baby (and our four friends and their babies were in the other rooms), she even had toys on hand and baby spoons ready for the tasty and complete breakfast board.
Her attention to detail is amazing -- you can tell she's been doing this for a while, since she has checklists and systems for everything from recycling to lights to staying hydrated. We felt very well cared for, almost like staying with a family member.
Last thing: she loves fair trade coffee from Ecuador, so if you feel like making her day you could bring her some (e.g. Trader Joe's)
