Great location in San Frediano where I stayed a month before being able to get into my long term apartment. The place suited my needs perfectly during my international move with lots of bags and a huge dog crate; I was very happy to be on the ground floor with ample space. I could easily walk to fabulous gelato, markets and restaurants and I appreciated being out of the tourist fray. It was quiet and even without AC the place stayed surprisingly cool in 95 degree weather. Claudia was available for any question and when the water heater got a screw loose, she had it fixed right away. I didn't cook much, just coffee and breakfast but I would say the set up is for light cooking. Bed is comfortable.
