Their home is absolutely lovely and they're great people. It's an easy walk to broadway where EVERYTHING is and to the 25/33/2 buses. Safeway is also there so you could get a compass card for travelling. If in a pinch, there's starbucks and subway just around the corner and a lovely cafe slightly further down that road. Mary Anne and John were very understanding and friendly when they communicated to me and my parents about our needs, accommodating them accordingly.
