I would absolutely recommend this place and hope to use it again!! Chris and Neil's cottage is the perfect location and we were completely happy with it.

I live in SF and had family come visit- I arranged this for my sister and her two daughters who are 17 & 20. My sister stayed upstairs and the girls were on the sofabed downstairs and it worked great. It was really nice to have 2 bathrooms. And my 18 month old son stayed over one night too- in the baby/toddler room-with his aunt and cousins and it was just right. Overall it's cozy- but was just what we needed in terms of space. Plus they have a lovely outdoor covered back patio with a big dining table, heat lamp and grill- we used this one night for a family dinner and we loved it.

The best part is that it is on a charming and quiet street and yet just a block away from Fillmore Street which has everything you want/need within walking distance: grocery store, Walgreen's, bank ATMs, 2 spas, 2 movie theaters, coffee shops, juice/smoothie shop, terrific cafes, bars and restaurants for breakfast/brunch/lunch/dinner, bakeries, cupcake shop, makeup and clothing shops, blow dry bar, the Fillmore concert venue and there's a great city park as well just a block or so away. The park has a great kids' playground and a good set of stairs for exercise.

I wanted something where there was no need for a car, where we could easily get coffee or snacks or go shopping or catch a bus right out the door-- and this totally fit the bill. Plus it's unique because it's a cottage, so not part of a big apt. building with people in & out. It is comfortable and quiet, is central to everything and easy to get bus lines to different parts of the city. Chris and Neil left a very helpful and informative packet, including a list of suggestions for where to eat and what to do in the area.

This is a fantastic spot for parent(s) with a baby/toddler or with 2 kids of any age, or even just a couple or 2-4 friends (keep in mind there's a queen bed and queen sofa bed). Again, we loved it and found it was a great place to use a home base while touring around SF and beyond. I intend to tell other friends about it- it's a gem!
