The apartment was just like the photos. It was a little cold at night but there was a heat lamp that helped. Tawnya was a great host as she had milk and granola, umbrellas in case it rained and she even greeted us at the door when we arrived an hour later than anticipated as the plane was delayed. We were warned beforehand that there were some muggings in the area and to be honest I didn't feel entirely safe. The location was very close to the highway and bridge into San Fran. Luckily we had a car and we were able to drive around to many places.
