Jason made a room in his home available to me for my stay prior to my first Boston marathon, and it was overall a positive experience. Location was key, as my pre-race bus picked me up on Vassar on MIT campus, a short walk away, and being so close to Trader Joe's and Whole Foods was critical as well. There were other guests staying in the same apartment at the same time, and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting them and the shared experience. Jason was out of town, but did a good job of managing the ingress/egress of guests through his home. He was very responsive to inquiries.
