First and foremost, Mickey is such a wonderful and personable host. He worked closely with me, constructively trying to make the most out of the experience for myself, my family, and a friend. His space was not only beautiful and comfortable, but the plans and recommendations that he had provided were exactly what we needed to see and experience the most out of San Francisco. First, let me start with the location; it is in a beautiful neighborhood overlooking the gorgeous and lively Dolores park. It is a sight to behold on the weekends, and the noise of the park never reaches the home. The private entrance creates a private and secure environment. I have never stayed at a house in San Francisco, and I was quick to notice the lack of space in and in between homes. In this home, the layout makes most of the space, as the main floor includes a clean, newly modeled, and appliance available kitchen as well as an incredible living/family room. This area facilitates great interaction between everyone staying due to it's comfortable couches and modern furniture, as well as a fantastic entertainment system. From there, there is a loft/bed 1 floor up, and two bedrooms on the floor below. All rooms are furnished beautifully in a modern kind of way. The patio and outdoor area is a great place to hang out as well. The openness in the home was great in that you always feel in tune with what's going on at all times no matter what room you're in. But with the openness and close proximity between neighboring residences, the one thing is is that I don't know if it creates an echo or naturally amplifies sound. Aside from trying to monitor your volume, as should any respectful guests do, we felt so much at home.

Location wise, it is a 10-20 minute walk to the nearest Bart stations. It is also a s trash in trash bags, but could not locate where to dispose of it. Come to find out, he has the place professionally cleaned after every stay. This was such a relief in that we were instructed to just leave our towels (which he warmly provided) in the bathrooms, and I assume dishes and the said-trash, for the cleaning crew to take care of. This not only brought us relief, but just added to our wonderful experience.

I do highly recommend this place to anyone visiting San Francisco. Not only are you in for one of the best stays ever, but also with the best host.
