John was an incredibly wonderful host. He gave us great advice about local restaurants, etc., and could not have been more helpful when we had a question. John and Dulci's place is magical - do not be deterred because the main room is at the basement level. There is plenty of light and a host of cool furniture and lighting design traits. And the location (and easy parking) are just perfect. There are Hope Street restaurants and stores just a half block away. We had a lovely stay for 10 days.
