AJ was wonderful. We felt welcome and comfortable instantly. He and his wife are warm, friendly, hospitable and were also so sweet to our 5 year old son. The loft had toys and there was a swing hanging from the tree out front which he loved so much that he was sad the day we were leaving. The kitchen was stocked with all the things you don't want to have to bring from home like coffee, tea, spices, condiments and even breakfast cereal and milk. We definitely plan to keep this as our home away from home when visiting our family in the bay area.
