Nobody cares about your businesses (Law and REI) like you do.Think of it like our school system of 12-grades.

If it's a very average looking listing that is not in an A-grade location, and their calendar is well booked relative to other comps without that amenity, then you could reasonably assume that the amenity is making a difference. 

The grade of the property will also impact what type of tenant you attract--an A grade house will attract completely different tenants than a C grade.
