Hal's home was truly a home away from home with some additional touches such as a welcome bottle of wine, cheese, fruit, coffee creamer, and baguette. Hal's home was clean, the bed was extremely comfortable, and we had enough space to accommodate an early riser and a late sleeper without worrying about disturbing each other's morning flow. The pantry was so well stocked with an assortment of spices (more than I have in my own kitchen) cooking oils, a full set of cook and bakeware, as well as the items to store leftovers. A healthy variety of tea and coffee, too. The location was in a cute neighborhood that provided quiet nights away from traffic but within walking distance of public transportation. Hal was an excellent communicator and answered questions right away. We highly recommend staying at Hal's home if you are looking for comfort, excellent value, and hospitality.
