Doug was super friendly and accomodating. We reallyappreciated his allowing us to check in early and leave late because we were attending a conference that left us exhausted. The house was large. We were able to take at least two showers at once. The hot water didn't fail us. Two of us showered at night and the other two showered in the morning. The beds were comfortable. There were plenty of good restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance as well as a fast bus straight downtown only half a block away. You really couldn't ask for more. Make sure you plan on breakfast at the The Fat Hen, but give yourself plenty of time.
