Brandon's place is a great home base for travelers wanting to be walking distance to many tourist sites. It is also conveniently located across the street from a grocery store and many theaters. Little Shop of Horrors was playing at a theater on the same block! We managed to fit in a play during our stay and it was a big help that we could enjoy the city by walking to/from the theater.
Another plus was the apartment managed to stay quite warm and cozy. It was such a relief to come back from the rain/30-40degree weather to a place that felt like home.
