The location is amazing! We loved waking up everyday with views of the bay. Union Street is a block away, and we made full use of the numerous fitness studios and health food places in the area. It's a little bit of a trek to the wharf, North Beach, etc. if you are walking, which we like and did a lot of, but ubers are plentiful. The space itself is cool and modern, even though the building itself is old. This is a shared apartment, but we hardly ran into our hosts. When we did, they were perfectly hospitable!
