Brendan's place is a stylish and comfortable pad located between the Dogpatch/Protrero Hill neighborhoods. Note it's called Protrero HILL for a reason! The hike up is intense but you will be rewarded with the most stunning views of the Bay and the downtown skyline. There's a park near the apartment that would be ideal for a scenic picnic. The neighborhood is mostly residential but there are a few nice restaurants and cafes that are definitely worth checking out. Brendan is an excellent host and was very responsive to all my queries.
