Karin's place is absolutely adorable! I love the multi-floor layout of older houses. Nestled at the bottom end of a court/cul-de-sac, parking was a bit stressful for me, but Karin was upfront about that, and honestly, the view MORE than made up for the parking situation. I thought I was going to be annoyed by not having a tv in my room. But after sightseeing all day (Karin had some great suggestions), I never missed the tv. I fell right asleep in all the super comfy pillows :-) Great location, only minutes to the airport, and a quick little drive to the Golden Gate Bridge and Sausalito (there's a bakery there that has AWESOME chocolate chip cookies!!). I wouldn't hesitate to stay at Karin's if I'm even ever back in the San Fran/Oakland area :-)
