Sharon's place was in a great location. Walking distance to the pedestrian bridge and downtown (about 20-40 minutes depending where you are going). We felt safe walking throughout the whole weekend, and we loved that we had a guaranteed parking spot to leave our car at Sharon's.
Some reviews mentioned the noise level. This is on a busy street with both car and train traffic. There was also construction one night. We know this is out of the owner's control, but it is something to keep in mind. Our one main complaint was that the bed was very loud. If you rolled over, it made quite a bit of noise. This only added to the other noises going on outside from traffic.
The amenities that Sharon offered were a very nice touch. The bottled water and snacks provided came in handy after the football game. Great place to stay if you're looking to not be downtown, but still be walking distance to downtown amenities!
