Joan's place is an older style renovated house full of character and charm. The room has a very comfortable double bed and a small TV which is great for winding down at the end of the day. She has a large well equipped kitchen that is a pleasure to prepare food in. There is a very good market with everything you need and good quality organic food just a short walk away. Joan is a very helpful attentive host. I had extremely painful toothache while I was there and Joan looked up some dentists for me and had the right painkillers I needed which I was very grateful for. I would highly recommend Joan's as a great place to stay in San Francisco
