Marie was a fantastic Airbnb host. She goes the extra mile to make sure that your stay is comfortable, and it truly is like staying with an older relative. She’s retired & living on her own, and she enjoys hosting visitors in her home.
She was very thoughtful, leaving the lights on until we came home from our day out and allowing us to make sandwiches for lunch in the kitchen. She would remember our breakfast preferences every morning, and she would make sure that we had full stomachs before we went off on our days. There was a full spread of fruit, ham & sausages, bread, and eggs made to order. She was friendly & conversational, and it was a good way to start the day.
The bed is very comfortable, and the location was perfect (located in a safe neighborhood). It was relatively close to many popular tourist destinations, and Marie even drove us out to the Muni station the first day. She also gave us a map and pointed out how to get to different areas of interest. I would not recommend using public transit - it is often more convenient and cheaper to Uber Pool Express to your location and then walk. The city is very walkable!
