We stayed In Stephanie’s lovely Noe Valley home for our Covid-inspired trip to visit family nearby.
These are strange times, and it took a leap of faith for my wife and I to don face masks and goggles to get on a frighteningly empty airplane in New York to fly 6 hours away, only to quarantine in place for 2 weeks, just to play with our one-year-old granddaughter.
Stephanie’s home was an oasis - the perfect place to quarantine! Everything was immaculate and we especially enjoyed the chef’s kitchen and spectacular backyard with its lovely lemon tree. (Our only problem was not being as smart as her smart TVs!)
Stephanie and David were great hosts! Despite the fact that their home was fully equipped with anything we might need, she went out and purchased a drip coffee pot for us when I mentioned that I didn’t like using those coffee pod machines. It was not necessary, but it clearly revealed her desire to go above and beyond to ensure our comfort.
We’ve been to SF many, many times in the last several years and have stayed at some of the city’s best hotels, but quarantining in Stephanie’s home gave us the opportunity to experience living in SF, and the chance to visit with our 1 year old granddaughter during these trying times.
