Staying at Maria's Studio was the best decision I made. It looks exactly like her pictures, bright and very welcoming. Even though this studio is part of her property, I felt that we had the privacy we wanted. It was absolutely perfect. We got to meet her on our way out from our weekend getaway. She was very nice and wished us a safe flight out. No kitchen, but she did have a mini fridge and mugs and cups for us. She had a welcome basket filled with snacks (much appreciated!) and there was free wifi and a TV which was in the perfect orientation to the bed. The bathroom was very nice with a stand up shower and adjustable lights. There's a closet and drawer chest for our stuff. She even had a little vase of flowers on our table. The bed was SO comfortable! I was very happy to sleep at the end of the day. She had a list of places to eat and I tried four of those places and she was not wrong! She is very responsive to texting and messaging so contacting her was extremely efficient. The best thing about this place is the location. We did have a car with us and we didn't have any difficulty in finding parking. She did mention there was a parking lot up a few blocks if parking was an issue. We had planned on spending a whole day in Golden Gate park and it was only a 20 minute walk to the Academy of Sciences. Then her place was a 5 minute walk to Cole Valley and to Haight Street. Ideal for the food and bars. I can't express how AWESOME the location was! I would recommend everyone and anyone to stay at Maria's Studio, we would definitely stay here again for our next SF visit.
