If you consider being an Airbnb host, first stay at Shal's place! She is by far the best host we have ever had. She is thoughtful, responsive, friendly, and welcoming, and thinks about all the details. All necessities and comforts are there (coffee, tea, sugar, wine, spices, soaps, paper goods, guidebooks, maps, snacks....). The apartment is a perfect size for a couple and has a cozy couch, eating table, and lots of natural light in the living area. We loved all the books (organized by color) and other design touches. The little fireplace was perfect for the cold SF days we experienced. 24th Street, with all the shops, a Whole Foods, and a farmer's market, is two blocks away. We absolutely loved it! Our only sadness is that we didn't get to meet Shal in person. Next time!
