My partner and I stayed in Arthur's apartment for four nights and it couldn't have been a better welcome to California and San Francisco. (My brother was working just outside SF too and joined us for a couple of nights). The apartment was extremely comfortable, particularly the bed (a king size, which was utter luxury!), with a serviceable kitchen and it was a joy to end busy days with a beer on the sofa. The place was spacious, stunning, in a great area with loads of places to eat and drink. Bar Vinyl for wine and craft beer, 4505 Burgers and BBQ were a perfect first night treat after a long plane journey from London, Bi-Rite ice-cream (honey and lavender flavour rocks!), Haight Ashbury and Castro were a walk away ... We were pretty sad to leave actually. Only advice to those wanting to explore all of the city is to get yourself familiar with the public transport system and buy a Muni card. We found ourselves up in North Beach and it takes a couple of buses to get back to the apartment. Not a problem for us as we love exploring and staying in a less touristy area was a deliberate choice. Really can't find much to fault our stay. We could have happily stayed a lot longer. Thanks Arthur!
