My girlfriend and I spent a four day weekend at Tom's and couldn't be happier with our choice!
Pros: Super large bed. Out of the way host, we rarely saw him which is good and bad because he's such a nice guy. 10 minute walking distance from a train into downtown. Friendly, approachable and great communication. Clean apartment. Access to the kitchen. Super friendly dog! (We loved Wonder)
Cons: Street parking although we didn't have any problems finding any spots. Didn't really find too many local food places but that might be because we didn't have time to explore the area for some late night food. If you really really really have an issue with dogs, Tom does have a dog (But honestly, Wonder was amazing, we loved her and we can't see very many people having any issues with her)
We would totally recommend staying with Tom to friends and anyone that would listen.
Thanks Tom and Wonder!
