If all you know about SF is cable cars and tourist spots--you need to stay here. A true neighborhood feel with walkable shops and restaurants only a few blocks away, N Judah an easy commute to downtown, and I even fit in a morning run in Golden Gate Park with a busy meeting/convention schedule. Did I mention the easy connection to BART for an inexpensive ride to airport? I even solved the early departure snafu. Upstairs from Bart at Powell is a Bespoke workspace--only $35 for entire day. Come for the convenient work space--stay for the lobster roll in the food court...yum.
