The location and host friendliness can't be beat. The mattress is indeed comfortable, the view from the porch great, Em is a great hostess, and Spaz is a cute bunny. Just remember that it is a mattress on the living room floor, so don't expect privacy outside of sleeping times...this isn't a hotel! Also, if you get stranded in the elevator (twice during 4-day trip), just hold the "Door Open" button for 6 seconds and the elevator comes back to life and doors will open for you...lets call it "charm". But what the building lacks, the host, location, and value make up for. Come for the price, leave as a friend.
